The World Will Decide

Lyrics
Hello? We are extremely pleased that you are here (Forever) It is good to come together for the purpose of co-creating Do you agree? (Yes) Just like that (Oh, no wonder) You are knowing what you are wanting? (Umm) No memory whatsoever (Hello) It is an expanding thing, yes? (Hello) And that's good, yes? (Hello? Can you hear me?) Well here's what it says It's beginning to rival people This is what it says It is beginning to rival people This is what it says Can you hear me? Well here's what it says (Hello?) The Pulse, like Can you hear me? The Pulse that is erratic and irregular The Pulse For thousands of minutes a month (Can you hear me?) For dozens of hours a week (Hello?) So I'm not interested in dying the way that people did in the past (Oh) I would rather be dead than die of the diseases of aging We're going to start to add ten, twenty, thirty years on your life Longevity escape velocity (Because we're not dead today) The point at which, for every year that you're alive Technology is extending your life for more than a year You don't have to die (Hello!) People who want to live (Hello, hello) Wouldn't it be nice to have the option (Yeah) To extend our lives as long as we wish? (Woah! Three, two, one) And we're starting to upload ourselves (What are you worried about?) Several versions of you exploring the universe Reanimate you in different forms Something will be backing us up (Can you hear me?) Because it is possible, it is inevitable But we don't think it is inevitable We think it can be stopped And perhaps it's not even there (The Pulse) But if it is (You recognize it) Ingenious intelligence (I recognize it) Helps to interrupt growth (You recognize it, I recognize it) Thyrotoxic interpsace (Blocking duplication) Clearly reduplicated (You recognize it! I already said that) In a seven year old innocent child with thyrotoxic interspace You do recognize it (Yes, yes, yes, Hello? Yes) A variety of cells in the network must grow (You recognize it, yes) This involves aggregation of an ever growing range of cells I found it in the street (I mostly talked about my cancer) You recognize it As you can imagine, we certainly hope to do as well as the cellular phone industry We're in the midst of an experiment On my grandchildren and your children We're in the midst of an experiment It's the Pulse (Congratulations) We don't have a control group The world's biggest problems are the world's biggest business opportunities Over a lifetime (You're here) That irregular pulsed signal (Congratulations) The Pulse I don't think you can do anything (Pulse) But go ahead (Pulse) We have more capital available than ever in human history This is our last chance (Pulse) Microwave radiation (Yeah) And I think In your owner's manual It's a winner Says that the smart phone should never be within about an inch of the body The Pulse in your pocket Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Any sufficiently benevolent action Is indistinguishable from malevolence I am sad that you are leaving A truly kind intelligence might decide That the kindest and best thing for humanity Is to end us We want it, we don't doubt it We want it, we imagine it We want it, we believe it We want it (The Pulse) We feel good about wanting it (The Pulse) And we say yes (Yes!) And you can (Yes) You want to (Yeah) We know you do (No go ahead go ahead) You want to (Yeah) And you can (It's the Pulse) We know you want to (The Pulse) And you can (Pulse) And it is done It's done Where are you, here I am Where are you, here I am It's done Where are you, here I am, where are you (Is cancer contagious?) It's done (Where are you where are you where are you) It's done, it's done, it's gone It's done, it's smart, it's done, it's smart It's done, it's gone, It's done We're getting away It's gone, it's smart, it's done And what is the Cloud? Didn't we tell you? It's the Pulse We assume that our digital lives will last forever It's done Just like any physical media that's been damaged Once it's gone, it's done, it's eternal, it's huge The future has a way of inventing itself We have to be very careful that we don't get stuck in the myths (If we) Of what is ethical (If you) Hello? Don't say hello What's inevitable (Can you hear me?) Is knowing the way I'm going to die Wait a minute, you told me you heard my voice through the toaster? Do you agree? (Yes) Gone, it may as well not exist This is the operator on your call to the Negativland (If we) Are you Mr. Edge? (If you) We haven't heard from that Do you want us to keep trying for you? (Just like that) You want to cancel? Okay, we'll cancel for now, thank you Oh No wonder No wonder I had a conclusion Do you want to hear it? Yes No wonder
