lyrics

Why must all the brilliant minds
Be treated like we’re criminals?
We’re destined to be outcasts
Never to receive respect that we deserve

We’re taken by these machinations
Perpetually intrigued in life
The schema of our being is to be
Dissected, who will hold the knife?

Imperfection, misconception
How can I prove what I’m worth

If you refuse to fund my mission,
I’ll make my mission to rule the earth

Or better create my own
A metropolis run by machines
By my own hand I’ll forge this this empire
Of circuits and electricity

Make no mistake
This is not a selfish deed
I refuse to waste my intellect on the foolish and inane

You’ll call me a mad man
And I’ll laugh in your face
I’ll say that I prefer the Egg Man
And I’ll put you in your place

I’d rather live in solitude
With all my pets that I create
If only I could encode compassion
And reprogram all of those who hate

Such a burden
This sagacious mind
That hungers for more information

Synapses rapidly transmit data
As if by automation

Cowards!
Why must you fear
What you don’t understand?
Savages!
Can’t you see
That I am just a man?

I am undeserving
For you to treat me like a fiend
To banish me from your town
And spread these lies and mockery

I’m no monster
I’m no monster

I am a doctor
I am not insane
I just can’t seem to stop these thoughts from flooding my brain

I have to act
I can’t let myself rest
My body is the humble servant at my mind’s every request

If you could understand
If you could comprehend
I am no evil man- I only need a friend
If you would just believe
Just give me trust
You’ll understand I don’t do this cause I want to,
But rather, I must

Well
If I could place the date and time
I’d choose not the word “decent” for my moral decline

But yes!
I recall it all quite clear
The moment I became the Egg Man, the one that you all fear

I’ve gained enlightenment
From science and its beckon
And I’m enthralled at the thought
That my mind is a weapon

Technology is my means
The means to an end
The tool of which I use to carve
A brand new nation

When mankind finally falls
I will be here to assist
Once something is obsolete
It has no reason to exist

I’m just a common man
I suffer every day
It’s the delusions that I can’t ignore that you should blame

I’m just a common man
I’ll suffer all alone
The only comfort that I seek is from AI and drones

I’m just a common man
I suffer every day
All the delusions that I can’t ignore cause me this pain

I’m just a common man
I’ll suffer all alone
The only comfort that I have is from AI and drones
