Happiness Machines
Started as a user friendly unit
Then we hatched a plan and thought we could improve it
Got plugged in and followed all of the instructions
Prepared for mass production
Thought we had the keys to the kingdom
All we had to do was sign away some freedom
And replace a couple parts deemed insufficient
To show we could commit
We just seem like happiness machines
Programmed to forget we're human beings
Gotta keep the numbers high, put on the suit and tie
All while happiness passes us by
Did our work then we were put on stand by
As we waited for the pie in the sky
To descend and feed our weary juggernaut
But there was no response
We just seem like happiness machines
Programmed to forget we're human beings
Gotta broadcast our whole lives to all the microscope eyes
All while happiness passes us by
Then we hatched a plan and thought we could improve it
Got plugged in and followed all of the instructions
Prepared for mass production
Thought we had the keys to the kingdom
All we had to do was sign away some freedom
And replace a couple parts deemed insufficient
To show we could commit
We just seem like happiness machines
Programmed to forget we're human beings
Gotta keep the numbers high, put on the suit and tie
All while happiness passes us by
Did our work then we were put on stand by
As we waited for the pie in the sky
To descend and feed our weary juggernaut
But there was no response
We just seem like happiness machines
Programmed to forget we're human beings
Gotta broadcast our whole lives to all the microscope eyes
All while happiness passes us by
