about
Elon (Take Me Home) is a dance-punk song that pokes fun at the late-capitalist narrative that techno-oligarchy can save us from climate change and isolation.
lyrics
I crashed my car
I spun out on the highway
It’s so self-driven that
I could not take a sick day
I don’t know how to code
We simulate, we simulate affection
You hook me up
I still feel depression
I can’t code human woes
I want to spend my living a computer
Elon take me home
Save me from my student loans
Swipe left
Swipe right
On me tonight
So swipe right
I pull the plug
I pull out my intestines
Capitulate? I want to feel authentic
I don’t know how to code
Planned obsolete
I’m planned to expire
A master stroke
But you ain’t a designer
Technical overload
I want spend my life fucking a computer
Elon take me home
Save me from this melting globe
Elon take me home
Send me to your Martian dome
Swipe left
Swipe right
On me tonight
So swipe right
Dying out in a warehouse here
Broke as fuck and my rents in arrears
Got a message from you tonight
Hot and Ready
But it’s for a price
You swipe left, not fucking right
I don’t want to be a ghost tonight
You swipe left and lean to the right
I’m going to die alone tonight
Elon take me home
Dance dance dance dystopia
Elon take me home
Dance dance dance dance dystopia
