Multi-Masking Songtext
von Spastic Ink

Hey. How you doing?
If you haven′t figured out the lyrics to the song yet:
1: It's a mouse and a printer.
The 2nd verse is the keyboard.
The 1st is a monitor.
Hang on a second...
I′m talking like this because it sounds really scary backwards.
I just hope I don't mess up my throat.
Anyways, verse 3 is a hard drive and a floppy disk.
The 4th verse is a motherboard with integrated circuits.
The 2nd is a scanner.
I'll see you later. Bye!


It′s a tale that′s leading the chase
A creature stirring blind
Selected choices locked in place
And yet another to find
Running scared, caught in the lights
With nothing left to waste
Bleeding black and blue on whites
Repeatedly replaced

Digits flying in the pouring rain
A brick wall collapse
The order left to explain
The convenience... perhaps
Arrange in any form or shape
To carry out commands
He's got the keys, no need to escape
Control is in his hands

I gazed amazed at the TV set
Assembled dots appeared
In contrast, a silhouette
The resolution was clear
After dark, machines in flight
On display to view
The scheme didn′t seem too bright
Pitch black to baby blue


Reading, writing the arithmetic
By retrieving heads
Tables turn as needles prick
Into spinning threads
A face as pale as a ghost
The information burned
And if caught, it would be toast
And could not be returned

Racing at the speed of light
Prepared for the pack
Unaware of the invader's plight,
All veiled in black
They crept onto the open field,
The array so precise
The swarm charged, forced to yield,
Then got stuck in the ice

I′d screen the scene
And analyze in a single pass,
Then translate and plagiarize
The writing on the glass
A pretty face taken from a mag
The headlines from yesterday
To modify could be a drag
To connect, plug and pray
