Lyrics for Song: Dear Mr. Supercomputer
Lyrics for Album: The Avalanche: Outtakes & Extras From The Illinois Album [2007]
Oh my God
I can't believe it
What went wrong?
The human race, in its place
Superstition man's religion
And conditioned mysteries incomplete
And the raven with its haven
Gods-in-graven
Girls and boys Illinois
Springfield with its freak and banter
Strike the cantor
God is dead, God is dead
Oh my God I can't believe it
What went wrong?
The human race, in its place
In religion, superstition
Man's conditioned mysteries incomplete
Take it for a patient man I caught it
Patient is the kind that gets you paid
Even if I had, man, I got it
Seems I never had it anyway
Sometimes it may seem your best intentions
Take off with a fever anyway
1-2-3-4-5-6-7 All computers go to heaven
If you think you got the vision,
Put it in the conversation
1-2-3-4-5-6-7 All computers go to heaven
If you think you got the vision,
Put it in the conversation
I rejoice in what I carry in my heart
It overwhelms what a man
Great Emancipation plans,
And public transport, clap your hands, Abraham
Oh religion, superstition,
Man's conditioned mysteries incomplete
Oh the Raven with its haven
Gods-in-graven
All is dead, all is dead
