Meme Magic Songtext
von Akira the Don feat. Terence McKenna

I should make it clear, you know, I don′t believe this stuff
I find believing in these high-flown, complicated
Synthetic systems to come off sort of like pathology
So, I entertain ideas
But I don't give the leaf over

What I do
I′m a meme spreader
What, what I do
I'm a meme spreader
What, what, what I do
I'm a meme spreader
A meme replicator


Naturally, this question arose in our group
Why us? Why us?
Why are the aliens revealing the unified field theory
Of space and time to us?
And the mushroom just replied without hesitation
"Because you don′t believe in anything"
And that apparently, is what′s required
Do y'all know that Van Morrison song about no guru
No method, no teacher
Just you and me and nature in the garden?
I think that′s actually where it's at

So, what I do, I′m a meme spreader
What, what I do
I'm a meme spreader
What, what, what I do
I′m a meme spreader
A meme replicator

A meme is a terrible thing to waste
A meme is a terrible thing to waste
A Meme - a meme is a terrible thing to waste
And the purpose of these teaching things

Is to turn you into fellow replicators of the meme
You should go forth and tell other people
Tell other people, tell other people
Go forth and tell other people
Tell other people, tell other people
And copy it into their head
Copy it into their head
Copy it into their head
And this meme will spread


So, what I do, I'm a meme spreader
What, what I do
I'm a meme spreader
What, what, what I do
I′m a meme spreader
A meme replicator

Because we cannot evolve faster than our language
The edge of being is the edge of meaning
And somehow, we have to push the edge of meaning
We have to extend it
Because if we appear to be confronted by insoluble problems
It′s because we have the wrong language
For dealing with this problem
You learn that with computers
Certain languages are good for certain kinds of problems
We have to constantly evolve language
And push it forward

So, what I do, I'm a meme spreader
What, what I do
I′m a meme spreader
What, what, what I do
I'm a meme spreader
A meme replicator
