1.	Frustration Free - Uncanny Valley Mix 05:25	lyrics	buy track
Why tug and tear at a plastic package? We can free you from all that frustration It really hurts us to see you struggle Even though you’re beautiful when you get mad Now don't you go and get all tight-lipped on us You would not believe all the things we gave up for you We’ve come a long way from the desert and the jungle We’ve got an easy-open tab for you to pull We made it easier to open up We made it easier to open up So throw your scissors away You won’t need them anymore And now you’re running through the supermarket Jackals and wolves bare their teeth all around you You smell rebellion but dare not spark it That razor blade in your hand has an ugly edge We can help you cut yourself free from this It won't hurt a bit; it won't cost a thing You just have to promise to be different Different from the rest of them -- different just like us We made it easier to leave it on We made it easier to leave it on So throw your razor (scissors) away You won’t need it (them) anymore We wrote a treaty with the vultures and jackals On their skin, in the blood of their children Their hackles rose as they smelled us coming Dancing our platitudinous two-step Along the edge of an uncanny valley Where just a little slip could send us to a broken neck We made it easier to give it up We made it easier to give it up Just give your decisions away You won’t need them anymore We made it easier to give it up We made it easier - so just give up Just do whatever we say And you’ll get your freedom back
