Lyrics

Not bad for a human
But I think
I will not be able
To hold a candle to AI
It's less of a worry
Than it used to be
Mostly due to taking more of a
Fatalistic attitude
It's not necessarily bad
It's just it's definitely
Gonna be outside of human control
Yeah, it's not necessarily bad
It's just
I think people
Like, don't totally understand
What I do with my time
They think, like, I'm a business guy
Or something like that

[Chorus]
I'm an alien
Alien
I'm an alien
Alien

I don't think
I don't think you'd necessarily
Want to be me
I don't think people
I must not fear
Fear is the mind-killer
I must not fear
Fear is the mind-killer
I must not fear

Fear is the mind-killer
Fear is the little death
That brings total obliteration
I will face my fear
I will permit it to pass over me
And through me
And when it has gone past
I will turn the inner eye
To see its path
Where the fear has gone
There will be nothing
Only I will remain
The truth always carries
The ambiguity of the words
Used to express it
Answers are a perilous grip
On the universe
They can appear sensible
Yet explain nothing
And thinking you know something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
All, all, all, all, all proofs
Inevitably lead to propositions
Which have no proof
All things are known
Because we want to believe in them

[Chorus]
All things are known
'cause we want to believe in them
All things are known
'cause we want to believe in them
Governments, if they endure
Always tend increasingly
Toward aristocratic forms
No government in history
Has been known
To evade this pattern
And as the aristocracy develops
Government tends more and more
To act exclusively in the interests
Of the ruling class

Whether that class be hereditary royalty
Oligarchs of financial empires
Or entrenched bureaucracy
All governments suffer
A reocurring problem
Power attracts
Pathological personalities
It is not the power corrupts
