about

An original jazz tune, following different characters in the same "canon" as my previous song Robots. Thanks so much to the amazing guest artists on this tune, it wouldn't be half of what it is without you.

lyrics

I don't mean to cause a stir
I just wonder where you were
when the grid went down

Homicide and petty theft
Honesty is all that's left
and it's not worth much

Those textbooks burnt up years ago
As ashes, so renown
But this case needs a special name
One half life of fame, for dear old such-and-such

You know I can see right through
Confidence you said was new
Nothing's new no more

If I knew to reunite
would be such an uphill fight
I'd be out of touch

You want to hear you saved a life
Record your new high score
To you life's just a video game
Sixteen bits of fame, for dear old such-and-such

Multiply the distance squared
by the time we never spared
and you reach the end.
