Cover art for Tiny Little Robots lyrics by Cage the Elephant

from the day we're born we're conditioned to consume, consume, consume, to want things we don't need. We've lost sight of what's really important, because we are too distracted, and that's how the powers that be want it. Robots are easier to control.

"they'll keep you so amused you'll never taste the truth"

in huxley's "brave new world" it is unheard of to spend time alone, just thinking or doing nothing. Everyone is always doing something to stay amused and not have to really think. Sadly, it kind of sounds like our society. TV, radio, advertisements, it's just a way to keep us distracted from the real issues and to breed materialism and make us want to constantly buy things. I don't know if these people are smart or the general population is stupid, because it seems to work on most people.

but some of us know what's right, and you can join us on the other side...
