Brave New World Lyrics

Oh Brave New World
That has such people in it
How beauteous mankind is

Oh brave new world
That has such robots in it
How beauteous mankind is

I see a poofy alpha-plus
I see an epsilon-minus
Everybody in their place
I take a soma holiday
To be born without face
Problems conveniently erased
And the matter of sex and erotic play
I take a soma holiday
Is this utopia, the dream of mankind?
Livin' your life on a factory line
Is this utopia, dream of mankind?
Livin' your life from nine to five

And the word was given,
And Babylon was destined to fall,
So hear the world and remember now...

Ending Is Better Than Mending,
Ending Is Better Than Mending,
Ending Is Better Than Mending,
ending is better than mending...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's a reflection of the book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Read the book and the song makes much sense. Basically, he's saying that we're all becoming classified via education, the dropouts being epsilons (retarded) and the university educated millionaires being the alpha's (so called upper class). Also the fact that most of us are blinded from the outside world, we are "conditioned" about whats bad and whats good, such as christianity is the higher power whereas buddhism is lower classed. I cant explain much more without you reading the book but i do reccomend it, it's amazing.

"I take a soma holiday"

Such a beautiful line. Yeah, n0data nailed it. It's about Brave New World in relation with our current society.
