Songtexte The Future Is So Yesterday - Inanimate Insanity

Welcome to Meeple
As you enter our esteemed facility
Please enjoy a word from our CEO
Steve Cobs!

The future is so yesterday
When everything is run your way
Your influence is everywhere
Smell innovation on the air
You tell me that I'm too ambitious
Well I say I don't care!

Now let's take a look at the profit margin
No, let's not, that's corporate jargon
You all want what you understand
So what I supply is what you'll demand
I'll never lose if you keep letting me win
But with the good that I do, is that such a sin?
I created all that you believe
You give me power you can't relieve

Cobs, what does this all mean?
What's your latest machine?
Am I going too fast?
Is all this progress too loud?
Did I leave you in the past?
Let's take some Q's from the crowd

This may come off as a stupid question
But what exactly do you aim to achieve?
Well, there's no such thing as a stupid question
So it's wise of me if I ask you to leave
This new product, the "Me" technology
Is that not groundbreaking
World-shaking mythology?
Well that all depends on your own ideology
But if I caused suspicion, hey!
Take my apology!

Cobs, you're always being coy
Is there a bigger plan?
Is this just a decoy?
No doy, I mean you always think I've something to hide
And this is no different, you've implied!

So, Cobs, is your whole persona intended
To keep those suspicions extended?
So all your schemes become blended
And your work cannot be contended?
Um
No questions!

The future is so yesterday (The future is so yesterday!)
When everything is run your way
(When everything is run, run, run, run, run your way!)
Your influence is everywhere
Smell innovation on the air
You tell me that I'm too ambitious?

Well
I (I) don't (don't) care!
The future is so yesterday!
