Babyland - (De)Pressing Plant lyrics

As it falls into this slot Your choices will decrease Little decision Along with built in trust and security All brought together via technology It's depressing There's just no way Some pattern completion could give us away I thought we all knew I could make the mistake And isn't that what you're after? Isn't that what you wanted all along? And what are we so damn afraid of? Is it what we are made of? If you call this selection I want the rejected too Stare at the winners And follow instruction I had a friend once tell me He took more comfort in technology He felt safe with a paycheck His whole life was avoidance I still see him sometimes And sometimes I take it out on a test drive Make a list of improvements Smooth out all imperfection Raise consumer confidence Explain all of the new frills Back it up with a sales pitch Understand if they say no You take a number and you bury it I don't want to take the heat I'll continue to lie I don't want to take the blame For a question inside of me I refuse to try and fix What has fought to survive It won't ever make no sense To try and erase every mistake
