Pushing Buttons
Down in the basement everybody looks the same
Nobody talks and nobody knows their name
And when it's 5 o clock they rush off back to their homes
To spend all evening just dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
In San Francisco there's a man with a crazy dream
John, Paul, George and Ringo in a never ending stream
Sex scenes and magazines all travel at the speed of light
Eight billion people all dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
Television, radio you know, all gone blank
No VCR. No singles bar. No tiger in your tank
The AI bot that wrote this song doesn't get a check from Daniel Ek
It ain't got no fingers - just dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons
Pushing buttons
Nobody talks and nobody knows their name
And when it's 5 o clock they rush off back to their homes
To spend all evening just dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
In San Francisco there's a man with a crazy dream
John, Paul, George and Ringo in a never ending stream
Sex scenes and magazines all travel at the speed of light
Eight billion people all dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
Pushing buttons for the company cars
Pushing buttons for the miles to Mars
Pushing buttons for planning the year
Pushing buttons just to make it clear
That they're taking no notice of you
You see they've got better things to do
Television, radio you know, all gone blank
No VCR. No singles bar. No tiger in your tank
The AI bot that wrote this song doesn't get a check from Daniel Ek
It ain't got no fingers - just dreaming of pushing buttons
Pushing buttons
Pushing buttons
