[Verse 1]

Cross to the dark walkroads paved in the local currency

But I'm not gonna let them hurry me

This time slow stroll blurry eyes not so

Take a megapixel snap or it's the world

I'm lookin' at the soul

No discrimination in the red room

Chemical development of evidence

Deplaced on the desk of the council

Count violations by the townfull

Prayin' for a change but it's doubtful

Anytime soon, give it a rest, you goons

'Cause I won't until the air I breathe

Is fresh from fumes and high death, who's left?

Apparently nobody on your board is well informed

As to the imminent shitstorm that you been brewin'

You leave the countryside in ruin now you want the backin'

Of the youth to purchase all the products in your factory?

Pardon the laughter but you have to be outta

Your shell to think of siccin' advertisings after me


[Hook]

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they won't stop till the sun don't rise

Kill the mother in the name of big business enterprise

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they don't quit till the sun won't set

Three piece suits left soaked wet from the threats


[Verse 2]

Jet planes, rocket ships, my hypothesis

Twenty years left, max, to get them profits

Is it really worth offing kids? Officers need to start doin' bids

I play the role of internal affairs and step to the front reflectin' the stares

Of all the onlookers, they all crooks and they all took everything

Includin' the freedom for smokin' a couple o' grams

Five years in the slam no it doesn't equate

I guess it weighs more than your heart, though

With no soul, palpitates blacker than charcoal

Pumps cruel murder through your veins don't complain

Relax you're never in control of my game, perhaps you're

Curious to what you need the mask for

We ask the questions till we choose to pass you the floor

Remove the rag, dip it into the concentrated

Run off from the leakin' that you think of your mistakes


[Hook]

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they won't stop till the sun don't rise

Kill the mother in the name of big business enterprise

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they don't quit till the sun won't set

Three piece suits left soaked wet from the threats


[Verse 3]

Clear it out, wear it out

We let you know the truth for what it's worth

I know at times it's hard it hurts

The pain arrives in spurts

It doesn't disappear for many years

And by that time another five are in lyin' wait

To put a tangle in your vine

But I shall know not

Boy scouts, lost heads roll

From the waves, slaves to the way that we behave

From the page to the stage

Laugh like a cave grave, on some

Talk shit to the government not really lovin' it

Tuck the steel curtain in blue

With red and white I'll do the side car approachin' in view

Avoidin' barriers and medians

Their leader doubles as a comedian

I bubble slick roads to impede [gross skeeve ?]

Clean escape, take steps to cover my tracks

Epcot in the manifest

Shake with the walls till they all fall flat

A swift, just, and sweet clap because


[Hook]

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they won't stop till the sun don't rise

Kill the mother in the name of big business enterprise

Learning is remembering

And so we flash the photographic memory

To capture all the corporate activity

'Cause they don't quit till the sun won't set

Three piece suits left soaked wet from the threats
