lyrics

People walking on the moon, that was before my time
A lot of people I know though say it messed with their minds
‘Cause now when they look up they see things differently
Knowing people have been up there changed their reality.
Took away some of the mystery

And it’s funny how, it doesn’t matter how true something is
When you’re in the business of the denial
Wanted: Quiet place in mind

Let me tell you about another day, Philadelphia, May 11, 1997
Garry Kasparov is disbelief holding his head slunched over a chessboard
He started strong, took a pawn, confident he was gonna win again
But this time IBM showed up packin’ 200,000,000 moves a second
Super computer Deep Blue starting to dance, raising his hands standing over him
Beating his chest, looking down, shouting like Cassius Clay over Sonny Liston
There’s one thing I know: The grandparents of our cellphones will always remember it
‘Cause it’s like a moon landing for artificial intelligence
And it’s funny how, it doesn’t matter how wrong something is
When you’re in the business of lying
Wanted: Quiet place in my mind
