„Mechanimal“ is the most daring and experimental in the infodemic series … which is based on the fact that it is supposed to accousticly mimic mechanical factory production. A very robotic beat in the verses portrays the „day-in, day-out“ routine of our mechanized industry. In juxtaposition, the chorus is like a passionate lament of the machine against human’s assumption that it has no soul. The point was to write a song which is as bleak and soulless as our production values.
lyrics
Excersize Rights?
Ancient Rites, Bytes!
Now, Your Insights
Burn Oh So Bright.
I Get The Codes And Work The Load Mechanical
My Strategies And Leitmotif Are Rational
No Accidents, No False Pretense, No Optional
But Definite, Point On The Grid, Intentional
How Do You Say? I Cannot Get Emotive?
That’s What You Say? I’d Rather Get Explosive!?
Hey, You Are Young And Rad, So Tantalized And Sordid
Cannot Contain Your Fate, When All The Shit Unfolded
I Calculate And Operate Professional
Process The Data, Level, Meter, Annual
I Add The Facts, Subtract The Bugs, All Logical
Day In, Day Out, Without A Doubt, Impeccable
How Do You Say? I Cannot Get Emotive?
That’s What You Say? I’d Rather Get Corrosive?
Hey, You Are Young And Sad, So Tantalized And Sordid
Cannot Contain Your Fate, When All The Shit Unfolded
What Do You Mean? I Cannot Get Promotive?
That’s What You Learn? When All The Signs Foreboding
Say You Are Lost And Cracked, Redundant and Exhausted
Cannot Relate, Want No Debate, Am Not Devoted
