The Novelty Machine Lyrics

The Novelty Machine

What's in the bag?

What's in the bag man?

It seems to be holding you down

What's in the bag?

What's in the bag, man?

In the bag

I got two thumbs up and an alien head

I got two thumbs up and an alien head

All you motherfuckers who thought I was dead

I got two thumbs up and an alien head

It is not actually the head of an alien that would be unethical and

kind of gross to be honest with you … no no

The alien head is a symbol of how we are all alienated from ourselves

Separated from that core inner being by the thieves of attention

The thieves of attention who want to monetize

And I'm not against making money, I just want my cut like everybody else

Welcome to The Novelty Machine

It's gonna give you something different

New and Different every second of every day

Going to keep you entertained and occupied

It's going to do all those things you don't want to do

Welcome to The Novelty Machine

Now what are you gonna do with it? What are you gonna do?

"What" is the operative question because we can leverage this novelty machine

You can leverage it to your own purposes

That's what they tell me

I took the class, I paid the money and that's what they told me

I can learn the secrets

I can become enlightened

I can become illuminated

Illuminataluminium!

Yeah they said a lot of fancy words

They said a lot of fancy words

All lost in the midst of times

All lost to the mists of time
