[Verse 1]
Fun fact
(Fun fact)
Number 1
(Number 1)
The greatness that they speak of
Is a product of the movies
It's a product of delusion
Never even existed
They make a story a weapon
Swing it like a hammer
Smashes iron-fisted
Into difference and colour
Or anyone who disagrees
Or doesn't buy the recipe
Airwaves
Playing toxic mediocrity that preys on you
We're ad slaves
It's mass psychology to make us consume
[Chorus]
And that fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
It's never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back...
[Verse 2]
Fun fact
(Fun fact)
Number 2
(Number 2)
The idea of meritocracy
Is just another fairy story
The elite and the aristocracy
Got all the money and the glory
They wealth of which we speak
Perpetuated by the suffering of the many
Our magical devices
Made by people working for pennies
The same imperial system
Slavery is still the piston
Airwaves
And with more misogyny than you can chew
We're ad slaves
It's mass psychology to make us consume
[Chorus]
And that fake town ain't never comin' back
It's never comin' back
It's never comin' back
That fake old town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
And that fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back...
[Bridge]
But I remember Mama's blueberry pie
And every guy had a real man's job
Back when women knew what their place was
Before the stock market became the new god
Before the internet and the happy pills (the happy pills)
Stole our ability to fix things by ourselves
[Chorus]
That fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
That fake town ain't never comin' back!
Never comin' back!
It's never comin' back!
That fake town ain't never comin' baaaack!
Never comin' back
Never comin' back
