[Intro]

Ooh yeah, oh

What we're livin' in?

Let me tell ya


[Verse 1]

It is a wonder man can eat at all

When things are big that should be small

Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doin' for us?

And I'm givin' all my love to this world, only to be told

I can't see, I can't breathe, no more will we be

And nothing's going to change the way we live

'Cause we can always take, but never give

And now that things are changin' for the worse, see

Woah, it's a crazy world we're livin' in

And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin

Is all we have to give these


[Chorus]

Futures made of virtual insanity

Now, always seem to be governed by this love we have

For useless twisting of our new technology

Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live underground


[Verse 2]

And I'm thinkin', what a mess we're in

Hard to know where to begin

If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made

And now every mother can choose the colour of her child

That's not nature's way

Well, that's what they said yesterday

There's nothin' left to do but pray

I think it's time I found a new religion

Woah, it's so insane

To synthesize another strain

There's something in these futures that we have to veto


[Chorus]

Futures made of virtual insanity

Now always seem to be governed by this love we have

For useless twisting of our new technology

Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live underground, woah


[Bridge]

Now there is no sound

If we all live underground

And now it's virtual insanity

Forget your virtual reality

Oh, there's nothing so bad

As a meddlin' man

Oh yeah, I know, yeah

Take it to the dance floor


[Interlude]

Ooh

I know I can't go on


[Verse 3]

Ooh, of this virtual insanity we're living in

Has got to change, yeah

Things will never be the same

And I can't go on

While we're livin' in

Oh, oh, virtual insanity

Oh, this world

Has got to change

'Cause I just, I just can't keep goin' on

In this virtual, virtual insanity

That we're livin' in, that we're livin' in

And that virtual insanity is what is, yeah

Ooh


[Chorus]

Futures made of virtual insanity

Now always seem to be governed by this love we have

For useless twisting of our new technology

Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live underground, oh

Futures made of, now, virtual insanity

Now we all, we seem to be governed by a love

For this useless twisting of our new technology

And now there is no sound, for we all live underground

Yes, we do, oh

[Outro]

Oh, now this life that we live in (Virtual insanity)

It's all goin' wrong, and

Out of the window (Livin' in), you know (Virtual insanity)

There, there is nothin' worse than (Livin' in)

A meddling man (Virtual insanity)

There is nothing worse than (Livin' in)

A foolish man (Virtual insanity)

Yeah

Virtual insanity is what we're livin' in, yeah

Well, it's alright now
