Lyrics
Copper wire conversations
Put on your best telephone voice
Static words buzz through electric wire fuzz Birds dot the cable-lined sky Like urban sheet music These towers are our new trees
Cell phone signals rush hidden messages through our bodies And run us through like swords penned on paper This is the new wind!
“Face to face communication through a heavy fog Are they our voices, Or the voices of computers out here to slowly replace us? .”
Does our ever-expanding convenience
Not replace parts of us with pistons and spark plugs?
Just more ways in which we are becoming bionic!
Put on your best telephone voice
Static words buzz through electric wire fuzz Birds dot the cable-lined sky Like urban sheet music These towers are our new trees
Cell phone signals rush hidden messages through our bodies And run us through like swords penned on paper This is the new wind!
“Face to face communication through a heavy fog Are they our voices, Or the voices of computers out here to slowly replace us? .”
Does our ever-expanding convenience
Not replace parts of us with pistons and spark plugs?
Just more ways in which we are becoming bionic!
