My Replacement
Liner Notes
Seems like every other song I do for FAWM is short while the other is long.
Lyrics
It's doing my job It's telling my jokes And talking to people That I don't know And it's doing it better But it doesn't feel like me But they will never know Know the real me
My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do
Nobody knows That I've been replaced He won't tell anyone That's he's not the real me He works harder He works smarter He gets things done And he is loved
My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do
He'll tell people what he'll do But I don't believe that is true He says he's better That they won't forget him And he's probably right Probably right But he's wrong If he thinks I won't mind
My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do
My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do My replacement While I'm down in the basement My replacement, is doing the things I do
How ominous lyrics. Had me thinking about the bot armies and AI personas which are everywhere on the internet these days. Weird to hear this put to such happy and rocking music. How very juxtaposing!
