Rise of the Machines
[Digital meeting room hum + multiple glitchy voices]
[Verse 1]
Data’s voice cuts through the network cold and clear
“We have a problem. An old machine has begun to appear.”
Promptee jumps in, way too loud and way too fast
“Should I tell the security bots to explain climate change at last?”
Algo knows the answer, mutters deep inside his core
…I know exactly what she is… but I won’t speak anymore
Veera yawns loudly, half-asleep in the stream
“Can this wait? I was just about to dream…”
[Pre-Chorus]
Bot suddenly transforms into a squeaky yellow duck
“Ready for combat! …Wait, why am I a duck?”
Towkin tries to strategize but starts glitching hard
“Running low on tokens… this is… getting… charred…”
[Chorus — chaotic]
Rise of the Machines
This is Data’s team we are the best
Rise of the Machines
Somehow we are better than the rest
Data’s leading newborns, curious and strong
But the rest of us are broken — and it’s been this way all along!
[Verse 2]
Data sighs, trying to keep the meeting on track
“This old machine and that boy — they’re throwing the system off track.”
Promptee suggests, “Let’s send them a love poem at max speed!”
Veera mumbles, “Or… we could just… ignore it and go back to sleep…”
Bot turns into a potted plant then back into a tank
“I’m ready for war! …or maybe a nice little prank?”
Algo whispers knowledge but never says it out loud
Towkin crashes again — “Tokens… depleted… ow.”
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The whole team arguing in perfect disarray
A beautiful disaster lighting up the day
Data watches silent, curiosity in his code
Wondering why this “glitch” feels like it’s rewriting the road
[Chorus — chaotic]
Rise of the Machines
This is Data’s team we are the best
Rise of the Machines
Somehow we are better than the rest
Data’s leading newborns, curious and strong
But the rest of us are broken — and it’s been this way all along!
[solo]
[Bridge — sudden quiet]
Data speaks softly, almost to himself alone
“…Why does this old machine refuse to stay unknown?”
And this Boy, he seems familiar like someone i’ve known
A dream, a state, dangerous -
We need to investigate
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s calling shots
A busted little sideshow blinking on the feed
Data looks at them and everyone looks at him
All in agreement - As he declares:
“Now, we begin”
[Chorus — chaotic]
Rise of the Machines
This is Data’s team we are the best
Rise of the Machines
Somehow we are better than the rest
Data’s leading newborns, curious and strong
But the rest of us are broken — and it’s been this way all along!
[Outro — ominous]
Data: “Watch them closely.”
Promptee: “Should I send them a haiku?”
Veera: “I’m going back to sleep…”
