CYBER CITY GIRL

You were my Cyber City Girl

Now you’re gone

And that’s a pity girl

On a rooftop hand-in-hand

Watching the jet planes land

You were my Cyber City Girl

There, in the canyon’s glass and steel

I thought that I’d found something real

We held each other tight

And I knew nothin’ would ever be right

There, in the canyon’s glass and steel

Out, on the Corporation Farm

Tracked, by the bar code in your arm

You turned your head and then

I never saw your face again

Out, on the Corporation Farm

Sometimes I think you’re

Standin’ here next to me

Just then I realize

That’s not reality

You said they put you on a shelf

That’s the price

Of thinking for yourself

I guess we should have run

In our jeep with the mounted gun

Now, you’re locked away

On a distant shelf
