lyrics

Have you seen my photos, they just went up
I took the time to pose with drugged-up tigers, so if you'd like it that would mean a lot
These kind of people keep on driving me mad, so I'm away to live in fuzzy old-fashioned lands, won't you take me by the hand

I don't know where, never been there, I don't know why can't you see,
I'm all on my own, and I'm out of the crowd, far away from the loudest zones,
And I'm happy to be so don't

Have you met my electronic self?
I worry that he's damaging my electronic health
This kind of thinking isn't thinking at all, so I'm away to where there's no one around me to call

I don't know where, never been there, I don't know why can't you see,
I'm all on my own, and I'm out of the crowd, far away from the loudest zones,
And I'm happy to be so don't
Send me messages, I won't, see your messages, please know, I never meant to be rude
Suggest that I was better than you are

It's in your head, it knows you well, it understands your mind as well
I know you think you're thinking for yourself
But the truth of the scene, you're in the machine

Send me messages I won't, see your messages please don't,
Send me messages I won't...

Send me messages, I won't, see your messages please don't,
Send me messages I won't, see your messages please don't,
Send me messages I won't, see your messages please don't,
Send me messages I won't...
