lyrics

You have been assimilated
by your own wanton needs an early version of you hated
look at this monster that you helped create
it consumes with a furry to sustain its weight
It lashes out when it is aggravated
like a rattle snake that is never sated
look at this monster that you helped create
it consumes with a furry to obtain its next state

Aren't you happier as a monster?
Answering will only get in the way.
The world is yours.

Do you know that you're the chosen one?
is it the sort of feeling that can't be undone?
marketing is up your ass making you burp out ads
and your buying in to all the bright new fads
take a picture of this monster that you helped create
it consumes with a furry to improve its weight
