No tales of social injustice
Postmodern troubadour declines
To comment -- he's content to
Hum and to strum,
Wasting his breath his long crime
No songs of shanties or unrest
Reality TV is just fine
Last night's dying star etched on his guitar,
read, This here machine, it kills time
This here machine, it kills time
There's no rest for the high speed
With their handheld nursery rhymes
Line the pockets of kings lie shiny things
It'd be a shame to be left behind
So I stole a man's cell phone
Just to watch him die
I made my own past
And I sang from the death,
This here machine, it kills time
This here machine, it kills time
Took pictures of myself and sent them to the sunset
To my disappointment I got no reply
So next I text the moon,
I said, I thought we was tight
Nowhere to be found, I threw it to the ground
And swore into the night
Swore into the black night
Now the stuff that life is made of
Slipped away without saying goodbye
He left his guitar in the [?]
This here machine, it kills time
This here machine, it kills time
