Becoming The Same

from Everything To Everyone by Kobayashi

/

lyrics

Hard work didn’t build that body
The sun didn’t grow this tan
She is the bionic woman
I am the synthetic man

Humour free, no irony
A soul that speaks in binary
New, improved, unloved, unmoved
But dressed in all our finery

We’re all becoming the same
In everything but our name
And in degrees of our pain
We make the likeliest gain

True love didn’t hone these feelings
I don’t read because I can
She is the bionic woman
I am the synthetic man

What did we do without “insecure”
How did we even live before
The invention of tension, the inception of stress
Didn’t we used to meet the test?

We’re all becoming the same
In everything but our name
And in degrees of our pain
We make the likeliest gain

We don’t try to sound like any of them. ... more
