Shock to the System
Today you take the first step
On your journey to transcendence
The future's here right now
The doorway to perfection
You inhale the stream of data
Click, click, click, we'll jack you in
Sit back, enjoy the drama
Click, click, click, don't stop, rewind
You'll assimilate the mantra
The enlightened panorama
Tick, tick, tick, enjoy the ride
Tick, tick, tick
It's a shock to the system
It lights you up
It turns you on
It's a shock to the system
The new frontier
Will give you everything you need
The time to act is now
Upgrade to turn your life around
As the world is growing darker
You can mitigate disaster
Order now while there's still time
Tick, tick, tick
It's a shock to the system
It lights you up
It turns you on
It's a shock to the system
You may feel the pinch
But it will be everything you need
If ascendance is your wettest dream
Then your satisfaction is guaranteed
Shock to the system
The new frontier
Will give you everything you need
I spin towards my grand demise
And my erasure a matter of time
So if there is a way to circumvent
My imminent impending death
Then I will pay whatever it requires
If life is malleable
And longevity is valuable
Then I will have defeated father time
My prime will be the afterlife
I'll probably outlive my wife
And I will claim my riches to be mine
I'm holding all the cards
And I am reaching for the stars
And I am infinitely better riding high
Thank science for the blessing
There can be no second guessing
I become a god, one with the hive
It's a shock to the system
It burns you up
It shuts you down
It's a shock to the system
The new frontier
Is void of humanity
If your evolution is technology
Then your destruction is guaranteed
Shock to the system
The brave new world
Is one where you're history
On your journey to transcendence
The future's here right now
The doorway to perfection
You inhale the stream of data
Click, click, click, we'll jack you in
Sit back, enjoy the drama
Click, click, click, don't stop, rewind
You'll assimilate the mantra
The enlightened panorama
Tick, tick, tick, enjoy the ride
Tick, tick, tick
It's a shock to the system
It lights you up
It turns you on
It's a shock to the system
The new frontier
Will give you everything you need
The time to act is now
Upgrade to turn your life around
As the world is growing darker
You can mitigate disaster
Order now while there's still time
Tick, tick, tick
It's a shock to the system
It lights you up
It turns you on
It's a shock to the system
You may feel the pinch
But it will be everything you need
If ascendance is your wettest dream
Then your satisfaction is guaranteed
Shock to the system
The new frontier
Will give you everything you need

It's a shock to the system
The new frontier
Is void of humanity
If your evolution is technology
Then your destruction is guaranteed
Shock to the system
The brave new world
Is one where you're history
