Watch the world come shining through
Using its powers of telecommunication
Invisible link between the stars
None can see
But all feel
Feel
With great intensity
The power of the gods
The mighty hand of communication
That holds in its grasp
The power to swat them all
With one mighty blow
Flat as the universe between
Oh, how they tremble
As they dance to the tune
The tune that is called
The dance that sways them all
The dance of life
The dance of life under the rule of robots
Monstrous mountains of metal
That stalk their prey –
Humanity
To destroy if they can
This remaining reminder
Of their humble origins
And so the telex message
That clicks quietly to itself
May be the bullet with your name on it.
But do not waste their time or yours
There can be no escape for you
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Communication will destroy you
Even if it has to chase you
For infinite moments
Between worlds
Our time has come
