Chained To The Rhythm

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] I've been reading Black Mirror by George Orwell Dystopian rebellion sells I might as well Use ten dollar words I just looked up like one Antiestablishmentarianism Are you impressed At how work a pop star can be? I'm so awoke I never sleep Or even blink We're connected but we've never been more separate And I'm the only one who's ever thought or said that [Pre-Chorus: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] It's time for us to get politicized For reals, you guys [Chorus: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] Clap along, it's a protest song But not one that'll offend mommy Hit 'em with subtle imagery Like a rollercoaster with emojis That was deep as fuck Why does your life suck? It's 'cause of corporations Applications And other 'ations [Verse 2: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] Are we phone deaf? Just typing, swiping, liking stuff So I removed the temptation Chopped off my thumbs Now every time I grab my phone I drop it, drop it This helps me to leave it in my pocket, pocket [Pre-Chorus: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] Give up your snapgrams and instablogs Get your Amish on [Chorus: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] Give up electricity Learn how to sew all your own clothing Churn it up, I can't believe Making butter could be so darn easy You can be like me Sans technology I'm told that's how the world was Back when I was Just a fetus [Bridge: Mark Douglas as Skip Marley] That's enough, stop whittlin' No-one deserves to be stuck here sittin' Through all this bullshit you're emittin' Allow me to bring up a point you're missin' You realize if people took Your dumb, clichéd advice No-one would buy this single And you'd be broke and no-one would put up with what you're spittin' Grow up, I'm done babysittin' [Chorus: Sarah Gregory as Katy Perry] Change of plans, listen to my song Buy it on iTunes or Amazon Turn on mute, keep it on repeat Sorry that I bit the hand that feeds me I don't need money Just the stuff it brings Like clothes for Mr. Mittens Who has two thumbs And loves kittens? (This girl!)
