Dollar Short

It's 2077, people
Why aren't we all vegans yet?
How many Netflix docs does it take for us to finally feel some kinda regret?
I mean, it's not like I stopped eating spicy chicken sandwiches, but still
It's thought that counts as long as we all agree that none of this shit was real

Was I a lame God?
Some substitute teacher with a Yamaha acoustic
Though I couldn't prove it, I'm sure that I did something great along the way
It's a little too brief
And a little drawn out
And despite my bestest efforts, I still couldn't tell you what it's all about

Well I can't find a damn flying car no matter how fucking hard I look
Still, we've got some semi-decent footnotes hidden somewhere in the history books
Like four dead Beatles, Minecraft gameplay, magic erections
And some commentary from the Paranoid Android music vid comment section"

Cool God's a little prankster
Pulling a dollar dollar bill along the boardwalk
I'm not one to talk, but I think it's about time for him to grow the fuck up
So I chased it around the world
And now I find myself right back at the start
I'd have stuck it to him, but I didn't have the heart

You're a day late
And, well, by now you know the rest
It's been our slogan since seven million BCE
And I'm the first person to put it to the test
All I ever wanted was a place of my own at the center of the earth
Where I could write the perfect sci-fi novel
Well, none of us could ever afford our worth
