This is track 2

lyrics

The skeleton sits in a chair fully clothed
As the tv switches through pre recorded shows
The lights begin to turn on slowly as the sun sets
The auto setting fade to night that has yet to be upset
The toilet's auto setting flushes roughly every 3 days
To keeps the pipes from rusting and maintaining a neat space
Not one dish sits in the automatic sink
This whole house planned out so no one had to think about
the fact Living was inefficient, nary an instinct
was needed, just proceeded to care for the thin link
between man and machine was all just programing
The vacancy was noticed by no one the whole damn thing
Just kept right on as if humans never happened
essence of efficiency fully automatic
the dust bots make sure the floor stays reflective
The doors auto lock made sure nothing was protected
Just out side the motion tracking camera
focused on a shadowy gaunt looking animal
by nature of it still beating heart the stamina
needed the advantage of not seeing the damage and
not being attached to a standard of living
eating out of trash cans ever since the beginning
but but a world of efficiency makes tough for scavengers
the streets had all been cleaned up no scraps so he had to search
from home to home but alas found only houses
void of inhabitance the gadgets that seemed to out live
their masters as the house responded to the scratches
with the same cold nothing that cleaned up the disasters
with his last bit strength the dog began to cry
house sat silent as the dog slowly dies
on the back porch with no one to see that it needed food
10101 had a job to do...
