Lyrics

While I lie awake
They're dreaming of me
And how much I'll take
Before I'm empty
Think a little do a lot
And take whatever hits the spot
And whatever free time ya got
They'll write down everything you bought
"Look here!" they say, "This shit is new"
"And our pockets got their eyes on you"
"And with everything that you consume"
"You can't see we're consuming you"
Put the penny in the pot
Now you're fucked your hand is caught
While I lie asleep they are taken from me
Oh, modern man, what have you done?
Oh, modern man, what have you become?
Look at the landscape
Raspberry skies
The ivory lake
I hope I never awake
Look at the landscape, (oh, modern man)
Raspberry skies
The ivory lake (what have you done?)
I hope I never awake
I know that I
Can change 'em if I try hard enough
'Cause we still believe
Their pockets always belong to us
Oh, modern man, what have you done?
You took my home and dirtied it up
Oh, modern man, (modern man)
What have you done? (what have you done?)
You took my home
