Lyrics
Art-I-Ficial
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know I'm artificial
But don't put the blame on me
I was reared with appliances
In a consumer society
When I put on my make-up
The pretty little mask not me
That's the way a girl should be
In a consumer society
My existence is elusive
The kind that is supported
By mechanical resources
My existence is elusive
The kind that is supported
By mechanical resources
I wanna be instamatic
I wanna be a frozen pea
I wannna be dehydrated
In a consumer society
In a consumer society
In a consumer society
