Lightbulb

Lyrics

The lightbulb is updating
And I sit in the dark
Picking at my nose
With the invisible hand

And how many songwriters
Does it take to screw a tune?
To get the record done on time?
To maximize demand?

Lyrics continue below...

While Palantir sells us to LAPD
I get jealous when someone I know's on TV
It's a sleight of machine
To distract and deceive, see how
Everyone's clapping for free

The lightbulb is updating
We both look through my phone
You know that lightbulbs only die
To maximize demand

So, If you're burning out
You better keep that shit in mind
'Cause if you're-

Writing the record
You must want it heard
And return on investment
Is all but assured
Guess success is a steal
Where the price is obscured
If you're doing it right
Then it won't even hurt

If I'm doing it right
Then I won't feel a thing
I'm a brain in a jar
I'm a face on a screen
Liberated, good-looking
And good at relating
Now everyone's clapping for me
