Fake Lyrics

Verse 1

When I was young I used to think

That when we reached the 21st century

That everything would be so sweet

We’d all live in global harmony

Now I’m here stupid rules the world

You can’t believe how stupid it can be

Heading back, veering right

Become cruel, mean and greedy.

Chorus

Welcome to the world at F.A.K.E

Hear the truth, you want to hear, you know that they’ll agree

Make-it-up, invent and lie, they don’t care just stay logged-in

They’ll keep your fears alive in the fake-dumb 21st Century

Verse 2

Now we all live a lie

Imagined lives of false confection

Wear a mask to hide what’s true

Fabricate your own persona

Infected by the cyber curse

Damned to live, lives of illusion

Do we shun reality

Choose to live in perfect delusion.

Chorus

Welcome to the world at F.A.K.E

Hear the truth, you want to hear, you know that they’ll agree

Make-it-up, invent and lie, they don’t care just stay logged-in

They’ll keep your fears alive in the fake-dumb 21st Century

Verse 3

The data gods feast on high

Greed corrupts...always

Faith and trust compromised

All of us betrayed

Big brother logged inside our heads

Thoughts held to ransom

Zombie bots mesmerised

Trapped inside their web.

Chorus

Welcome to the world at F.A.K.E

Hear the truth, you want to hear, you know that they’ll agree

Make-it-up, invent and lie, they don’t care just stay logged-in

They’ll keep your fears alive in the fake-dumb 21st Century
