Stevie Taite - Putting Computers In Their Place lyrics

The age of computers and clever machines Came from the minds of the human supremes They thought it would ease and relieve human plight But the truth is it doesn't with thoughtful hindsight They may do things quicker and save lots of space No need for CD rack or even book case I connect with the world just by moving my thumb And check if tomorrow we'll get rain or sun It's all very clever but here is the catch What technology churns out a human can't match So supreme own the world as all power they rob And more and more people are losing their job But poems and music and dance and great art Set the machines and us quite far apart From our brains come a wonder, it's what makes us great The expression of art forms, desire to create A computer falls flat on its binary face In this one respect, we put them in their place!
