My computer keeps getting older
C G D D7
But it feels like I'm staying the same age
G G7
When up to the minute
C C7
My whole history's in it
G A D D7
And I'm floating somewhere in space
G G7 C
I guess that we all make our own little ways
C7 G A D D7
Into planned obsolescence someday
G G7 C C7
So my computer keeps getting older, and slower
G D G C D G
And darling, I guess I'm doing the same
G C G
We're all becoming our parents
C G D G
Little by little, the traits we've inherited
C G
And are programmed inside our genetics
C G D G
Float up from the bottom and into our head
C G D
So if we're not going back to the bottle
Em G
We're gonna have to learn to adapt on the fly
C G D
While our roles undergo a reversal
Em G
Or at the very least, they become redefined
C G
This whole wide world is on fire
C G
And everything's gonna die
C G
I know that the future can feel far away
D
But it's only a matter of Time
G D G G7
Meanwhile... The world's gonna keep getting smaller
C G D D7
And I've been feeling a bit too big to fit
G C D G
It happens a lot, and this claustrophobic response
C D D7
Is a bug that I'm trying to fix
G C D G
I know that I seem like a simple machine
C D D7
But I can "just" get my head around it
G D C Cm
If the world keeps getting smaller, and smaller
G D G
And weirder the older I get
G C G
C D G D
G C E Am

C G
Your old ways are out the window
C G C
Your old lives are dead and gone
G
Nobody knows where we're going
Em D
But we'll be there before too long
C G
Let now be the age of invention
C G C G
If now is the time right before it all starts going wrong
D D7
Are we gonna keep playing along?
G D G
So my computer keeps getting older
C G D D7
My time keeps becoming the past
G C
But I'll dream of its plastic
D G
Components fantastic
C D D7
And the organic life they outlast
G D
Let the sky fall
C Cm
I could sleep through it all
