John the Determinist - Jeremy Messersmith

Polished up and standing in a row

Wind up the gears, watch them go

People made of spring and sparks

Humming with electric hearts

Hoping for a ghost inside the shell

But if it’s there it’s hidden well

All we are is ticks and tocks

Seconds in a pocket watch

Oh you silly things

I’ve got you figured out

Oh you silly things

I’ve got you figured out

Walking on a January lake

I feel the ice around me break

One more ripple in the pond

Stretches out until it’s calm

Oh you silly things

I’ve got you figured out

Oh you silly things

I’ve got you figured out
