Everything can be controlled.
Solist: The city is control. It’s a jungle. It would be jungle. But humans build a city.
Choir: Oh control is everything.
Solist: There would be sea. There would be trees. But there are banks now. The money tries the sea.
Choir: Everything can be controlled.
Solist: Noise of the air conditioning. Trying hard to make this humid place try. Try to stop the walls from crying.
Choir: Don’t you cry. Don’t you feel. Do. Work. Make a living.
Solist: Ask the gods for help. Burn some paper money. Get try. Hold the handrail. Don’t walk. Stand firm. Let the passenger get out first. Don’t eat or drink. Don’t think.
Choir: Oh control is everything.
Solist: Take your mobil. Keep your eyes on the screen. The exit is on the left side. Stand still. Thanks for making me so pretty, my botox. There is no space. There is no place to rest. Work hard. Party hard. Don’t let anything in your body. Protect your self. Don’t smoke.
Choir: Everything can be controlled.
Solist: There are trees. They are dangerous. Buy. Buy now. A rolex. A lexus or a bubblebath? Make some art. Produce good art.
Choir: Make some art. Produce good art.
Solist: There’s a way. Culture is to be defined. Masses must be handled. Optimize. Study. Study harder. Smile. Smilie, funny bunny. Goldfish. Bonsai Tree. Moon Cake.
Guru: Shall I tell you your fortune? Don’t lend money around 54. Good life.
Choir: Oh control is the everything. Everything can be controlled.
