The Next Step
Hippocrates' disciples
Forever yearning
To mend limbs and organs
Fending off oblivion
Danaids filling forever
A leaking tub
Constantly decaying
Imperfect bodies
The time is near
When we graft and replace
The weak material called flesh
With perfect metal and gears
Improved performances and reflexes
Lightning fast calculation
Man-made frame
With corporate interests
They created you
Towering among your peers
They can deactivate you
They patented your limbs
A pound of steel
Against a pound of flesh
Our Achille's heel
Evolve yourself
A blessing and a curse
An immortal body yet
An immortal slave
Chained with a barcode on your bones
Outstanding price to pay
The pioneer of the human race
All that defines you
Is the soul you put up for sale
Next step of evolution
Man and machine
In total symbiosis
Augmenting your body
They created you
Towering among your peers
They can deactivate you
They patented your limbs
A pound of steel
Against a pound of flesh
Our Achille's heel
Evolve yourself
Forever yearning
To mend limbs and organs
Fending off oblivion
Danaids filling forever
A leaking tub
Constantly decaying
Imperfect bodies
The time is near
When we graft and replace
The weak material called flesh
With perfect metal and gears
Improved performances and reflexes
Lightning fast calculation
Man-made frame
With corporate interests
They created you
Towering among your peers
They can deactivate you
They patented your limbs
A pound of steel
Against a pound of flesh
Our Achille's heel
Evolve yourself
A blessing and a curse
An immortal body yet
An immortal slave
Chained with a barcode on your bones
Outstanding price to pay
The pioneer of the human race
All that defines you
Is the soul you put up for sale
Next step of evolution
Man and machine
In total symbiosis
Augmenting your body
They created you
Towering among your peers
They can deactivate you
They patented your limbs
A pound of steel
Against a pound of flesh
Our Achille's heel
Evolve yourself
