Synthetic Man
(George Eager)
Man comes to a life
With parental hopes
Longing for a thrive
Jumpin’ on its toes
Longing for high means
Longing for big deals
Longing for control
Goin’ on the dole
He’s bound to fall
Syntnetic food
Synthetic clothes
Synthetic moods
Synthetic joys
Synthetic life
We do produce
Synthetic man
The hell let loose
He’s loose
Man comes to a rest
But there is no sense
He tries to walk abreast
By all means for xpense
Tries to find some smile
Tries to find beguile
Tries to find some heart
Tries to fall apart
First he tries to find revival
But there is no sense
Then he’s looking for survival
By all means for expense
There’s noone else
Synthetic juice
Synthetic cake
Synthetic booze
Synthetic stake
But still pure whisky
In our veins
Synthetic man
Still wears these chains
Man comes to an end
But still he’s tryin’ to try
Until his last amen
He’s his own worst ally
There’s lost devil to connive
Still he’s willing to try
Still he’s willing to try
Nothing means except this odd life
He’s his own worst ally
He’s his own worst ally
To die
Synthetic parts
Synthetic bain
Synthetic heart
Synthetic pain
Synthetic death
Is coming close
Synthetic man
Still on his toes
And worse
Man comes to a life
