Cover art for Nonphenomenal Lineage lyrics by Grandaddy

It's about (the true story of) music critics or the music industry itself rejecting grandaddy, deciding they are not worthy of promotion and success and telling them to get lost. Because this happened the band is doubting their own talents and have abandoned their dreams of success. The language is really formal and computerized and its from the point of view of the industry, of The Machine. because its really all about money and not about talent or good music or just helping out a worthy artist, and money is the great dehumanizer of relations.
