I think this track is about the love-hate relationship with money and social media. But decide for yourself what you think it means:
Verse
Scrolling into doom
Cause you don't know what to do
You're bored, that's how they sell
Numb the thoughts you have yourself
Ooh ooh oeh ooh ooh oeh (x2)
Scrolling into doom
What is it that you consume?
Who decides what you see?
Certainly not we.
Ooh ooh oeh ooh ooh oeh (x2)
Chorus
Algorithms, complex systems
Always come down to the same thing.
Trying to make things, more efficient
Trying get more money
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, mymymoney (x2)
Verse
Doom scroll, our demise
Puppeteered like lab mice
What you see is what you get
Can you really believe that?
Ooh ooh oeh ooh ooh oeh (x1)
Doom scroll, self destruct
You can never get enough
Dopamine in your veins
Slowly driving you insane
Who decides what you do?
Is it really you?
Verse
Algorithms, complex systems
Always come down to the same thing.
Trying to make things, more efficient
Trying get more money (money)
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, my my money (x2)
Bridge
Money buys you everything
All your hopes and all your dreams
Money is so good to me
I worked hard so I can keep
Money gives security
In a world filled with uncertainty
Money is my friend indeed
I'll do anything it needs
Chorus
Algorithms, complex systems
Always come down to the same thing.
Trying to make things, more efficient
Trying get more money (money)
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, my my money (x2)
Money gives security
In a world filled with uncertainty
Money buys you everything
All your hopes and all your dreams
Money is so good to me
I worked hard so I can keep
Money is my friend indeed
I'll do anything it needs
Oooh, would you really do anything, anything,
To get the mmmh, mmh, nom, nom money
