Bridge 1
This shit is scary and we can’t go back/
Was talkin’ to my friends about Anderson .Paak/
I go to Google, suggests Anderson .Paak/
I go to Facebook, I see Anderson .Paak/
I go to iTunes, it’s just Anderson .Paak/
This shit is crazy and we can’t go back/
Was talkin’ to my friends about Anderson .Paak/
I go to Google, suggests Anderson .Paak/
I go to Facebook, I see Anderson .Paak/
I go to iTunes, it’s just Anderson .Paak/
This shit’s amazing and I can’t go back/
Google already knew I love Anderson .Paak/
Facebook already knew I love Anderson .Paak/
iTunes already knew I love Anderson .Paak/

Verse 1
I press a button to enter the real world/
Hard to get the feels in this hard cold steel world/
What’s concealed is now revealed in the real world/
Big Brother watching you in the real world/
They trackin’ you, trackin’ you, trackin’ you downnnnnn/
Every time you wanna purchase a clown/
Every time you wanna purchase a cake/
Every time you go on Amazon/
Every time you make a Hot Take/
On Twitter with the hashtag/
They snag your litter like a grab bag/
They see that pic of you and your grand dad/
They demand that your attention is divided/
Look at me, Look at me, Look at me!/
They demand your attention is scattered/
Until your brain splatters and your attention is fractured/
Then they convince you Jobs is the rapture/
And blogs are the answer/

Bridge 2

Curated playlists, curated playlists/
I hope Beats 1 Radio plays this/
Curated playlists, curated playlists/
I hope Pitchfork Media rates this/
Curated playlists, curated playlists/
I hope BBC Radio plays this/
Curated playlists, curated playlists/
I hope The New Yorker rates this/
Curated playlists, curated playlists/
I hope Conde Nast rates this/

Verse 2

We’re conditioned/
To accept terms and conditions under any condition/
Pack in the supervision with precision/
No collision with my vision/
It was a split decision/
It’s time for an update! It’s time for an update!/
Click a button to make it go away/
Benefits are a byproduct/
Stalk our conduct so we buy products/
Buy Prada, Buy sawdust, buy a pot of gold/
Buy a lot to stop getting old/
Constantly compared to beauty that’s sold/
Hit the gym so I can get swole/
Whole Foods on my way home/
Keep spending to be trendy/
So strangers are friendly/
I look like Grunge Jesus/
Beard, man-bun and a henly/
Thank Yeezus for Twitter/
I finally have an identity!/
But seriously/
I’m not chic/
Just unique/
Said the sheep/
