Nomeansno - Dark Ages lyrics

We are living in the, in the dark ages

Haven't seen some daylight in what seems ages

All the information is locked far beyond

Locked in circuits and bathed in silicon

And we're fast asleep with our dreams seething

In and though all is still we are still breathing

But it's him in the dark, he makes me null and void

But it's him in the dark, I think I'm paranoid

A world of half-truths, what goes unspoken

Lines of communication are stripped and broken

And the dark is cold with hands freezing

But this deep-freeze seems strangely pleasing

And the powr-trippers receive facelifts

And the button-pushers all work night shifts

And the misdemeanors seem so ghastly

While the media punch is so lasting

And the Eastern comrades find out much too late

And free men are free to subjugate

Under megashadow, under nine to five

Still it's self-extinction that keeps us alive

We are living in the, in the dark ages

Haven't seen some daylight in what seems ages

All the information is locked far beyond

Locked in circuits and bathed in silicon

I don't know

Go to sleep

We are in the dark ages
