It's the poisonous and despicable authority of the mainstream
Oh, it'll kill me
When did life start? (Huh?)
I think I missed that part
Doesn't feel like I've been living at all since the fall
We all want our pictures on the wall
Let me warn you before they cut me off
It's a devilish little game we all gotta play
You don't got a say
Hats off to the mainstream
It's monopoly
In your Sunday best
And I know we're quite stressed
Lay your mind to rest
It's the PDA of the mainstream (mainstream)
(Social) cabaret, not my thing (my thing)
Pleasе just let me go, I don't want to show
The PDA, hm
What arе we worth? Just pennies and clicks
And that's according to them
Oh, I know it's right sick (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Don't try, just hush and take your pick
These babies don't believe in destiny
It's all arbitrary algorithms
Left to the fates (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Technology has killed the brave
Blind obsession
That all shiny vices know
Misdirections
And showgirls in tuxedos
It's the PDA of the mainstream (mainstream)
(Social) cabaret, not my thing (my thing)
Please just let me go, I don't want to show
The PDA, hm
Welcome to the show, wanna be somebody
Welcome to the show, better sell your soul
Welcome to the show, wanna be anybody
Red unbeating hearts, oh, they're all we know
Oh, so let me tell you
It's the poisonous and despicable authority of the mainstream
It's the PDA of the mainstream (mainstream)
(Social) cabaret, not my thing (my thing)
Please just let me go, I don't want to show
The PDA, ugh
