Sit around,
doing nothing,
all together
very fast.
Deleted all the posts in my timeline.
I don't expect it to help.

TWISK - Please Yourself
04:56
|
|
||
|
Anyone fears someone's gonna say:
"I don't like it that way."
They need not be in my shoes,
but should have to stay out of my way.
While you revile us, we keep you off working.
And our nothingness doesn't equal your emptiness.
Useless fear of dissent.
Anyone here: Please yourselves!

TWISK - Anti-Boredom
03:08
|
|
||
|
The precise assembly
of this purpose-built room
impedes any ennui.
Any supçon of boredom
would trouble you, too,
anger you.
This room is destined
for steady labour,
because working is what validates you.
Its sixteen-hours-facilities
challenge you,
model you.
Do you ask me about
best-selling liberties,
data preservation?
Bla bla bla…
No, I speak of
the room I live in –
a spittin' image of myself.

TWISK - I'm Good
03:32
|

I'm good at doing things,
I'm good at doing things.
I'm good at doing things I don't wanna do,
I'm good at doing things.
Oh, how time flies!
I'm takin' compliments,
I'm takin' compliments.
Compliments for things i don't wanna do,
I'm good at doing things.
Clammy hands shake hands,
clammy hands shake hands.
I'm good at doing things i don't wanna do,
I'm good at doing things.
Oh, how time flies!
Oh, how time flies!

TWISK - Policy
04:43
|
|
||
|
Isolate the senses
and transcribe the sensed.
Cognitive autonomy –
a policy contrary to contemplation.
And we dance,
and we dance,
and we dance homespun steps.
Thought’s a trap,
tongue is a barrier.
Claim your own tentative truth!
And we dance,
and we dance,
and we dance homespun steps.

It is easy to be nice
- crushed like a bug in the ground -,
it is easy to be kind
- washed down the plug hole -.
It is easy to be nice
- crushed like a bug in the ground -,

The ground shall inherit the meek.

Do you remember the old days?
They were horrible, horrible, horrible...
Do you remember the old days?
They were horrible, horrible, horrible...
I don't miss anything.
I long for the future,
I don't miss anything
horrible, horrible, horrible...
I long for the future,
I don't miss anything horrible.
