Synthetic sympathies
and surrogate sentiments
synthesized into symphonies
sung by such sinister simulants
Speak the words they all want to hear
Think the thoughts that they hold dear
Do what's expected and let them steer
Treat your own truth with hatred and fear
Never think of thoughts your own
Never accept your self alone
Never fail to echo moans
Always feel like all other drones
Copies of copies of copies of copies
Copying copy-cats that copy off copy-cats
Copying the copy of copies of copies
Never admit what's not approved
Ever submit to the new and improved
Always agree with agreeable things
Never oppose such egregious old things
Feel for the feelings of those feigning feelings
Deal with the dealings of the devil's own dealers
Hold hostage the hosts and harm all the healers
Prey on the prayers of the prophets' appealings
Copy the copies that copy this copy
Copy the copy-cats coughing out copy
Copy and copy and copy and copy...
