|
His world is under observation |
|
We monitor his station |
|
Under faces and the places |
|
Where he traces points of view |
|
|
|
He picks up scraps of conversation |
|
Radio and radiation |
|
From the dancers and romancers |
|
With the answers but no clue |
|
|
|
He'd love to spend the night in Zion |
|
He's been a long while in Babylon |
|
He'd like a lover's wings to fly on |
|
To a tropic isle of Avalon |
|
|
|
His world is under anesthetic |
|
Subdivided and synthetic |
|
His reliance on the giants |
|
In the science of the day |
|
|
|
He picks up scraps of information |
|
He's adept at adaptation |
|
Because for strangers and arrangers |
|
Constant change is here to stay |
|
|
|
He's got a force field and a flexible plan |
|
He's got a date with fate in a black sedan |
|
He plays fast forward just as long as he can |
|
But he won't need a bed |
|
He's a digital man |
