Slingshot Lyrics

They always said robots would gain control

But really they gained control of all our souls

I always expected lazer beams

They'll leave the killing up to us, it seems

Kid shoots down the sun with his slingshot

I must have seen that headline shared

By every friend I've got

Some are activating their doomsday plans

And they'll tell you that the folks that don't

Have got their heads in sand

People crashing cars like the movie scenes

Running wild, you can hear them scream

Eyes so glued to those six inch screens

Can't take the time to look outside and see

The sun is still shining on you and me

These bots will feed you truth and feed you spoofs

Is it really even true if you don't have proof

Information overload, too much work to try and crack the code

Kid shoots down the sun with his slingshot

I must have seen that headline shared

By every friend I've got

Some are activating their doomsday plans

And they'll tell you that the folks that don't

Have got their heads in sand

People crashing cars like the movie scenes

Running wild, you can hear them scream

Eyes so glued to those six inch screens

Can't take the time to look outside and see

The sun is still shining on you and me

These bots go in and pierce your mind

They'll suck the good out and exploit the fears they find

They'll dig a little deeper with every scroll

They'll feed you what you like, still you'll never feel whole

Kid shoots down the sun with his slingshot

I must have seen that headline shared

By every friend I've got

Some are activating their doomsday plans

And they'll tell you that the folks that don't

Have got their heads in sand

People crashing cars like the movie scenes

Running wild, you can hear them scream

Eyes so glued to those six inch screens

Can't take the time to look outside and see

The sun is still shining on you and me
