lyrics

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain

2001, the ape with the bone
Mouths agape when he cracked that skull
Taking his place at the throne
Throwing that bone up high

First one to die, first one to kill another person
First one bitten by the serpent, breaking the circuit
Making up a world that reflects architecture
In her mind, not the times

The ones that claim degeneration
Are on the losing side of the equation, ancient
Ain't it nice
When the disabled are better able to cope with life

Once the bubble bursts
If you can live amongst the rubble you'll be first
Once the bubble bursts
If you can live amongst the rubble you'll be first

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain

The single biggest check on the size of our heads
Is the wideness of our hips
The next leap forward will have to reorder
And trash what doesn't fit

Did you think you'd know him when he came?
Did you think that you'd be saved?
The quantum leaper is born with features
Tailored to the future not today

Inflexible behaviour, high inheritability
Exceptional logic, specific abilities
Narrowly defined deeply-mined pools of interest
The ol' specialist

Social deficiencies, sure, the cure
Is to spend more time online than in the world
And isn't the world changing? The big picture's
Not feelings, just the figures

Big data, bigger magic
Never be a wizard and that's so tragic
Big data, big big magic
We'll never be wizards, just average

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain

The Asperger messiah spits hot fire
Calling you strange, calling you tired
It's a new age, what we require has changed
Rewire your brain
