I view it as a commentary on unfulfilled life where modern convenience is used to try and keep us complacent in our hollow lives dominated by capitalism
Well considering you reflected upon that thought on a music video I just assumed it had some relevance in your mind to the song being played. Still, why is it such a big deal that they're on myspace. Would they be 'cooler' if they were on facebook? Just seems like a flawed way to think of people and musicians.
We'll end up numb from playing video games We'll get sick of having sex And we'll get fat from eating candy As we drink ourselves to death We'll stay up late making mix tapes And photoshopping pictures of ourselves As we masturbate to those pixelated videos Of strangers fuckin themselves We are very busy people We are very busy people There are crusty sox and boxes making trails straight to the bed And when we're done sleeping We'll stay busy dreaming of the things we don't have yet Well there's a long long list of chores and shit To do before we play Let's just piss away the day Crank-call the cops down at the station Just for friends conversation Requesting songs they never play Lets hear the on that goes: We are very busy people We are very busy people But we always got time for new friends So come over and knock on our door It's open, what you waitin for? We might be sprawled out on the floor But we still make lovely company Pull up a chair Ill pour some tea We'll shoot the shit 'bout everything Till you get tired and flip on the TV screen We stare at the TV screen That Danny Darki DVD has been repeating for a week We know every single word I've got an iPod like a pirate ship I'll sail the seas with fifty thousand songs I've never heard All the best of them go Fa-la-la-la-la-la We are very busy people We are very busy people But we've always got time for new friends Fa-la-la-la-la-la
Don't tell me false facts about your family andor force me to rely on false facts about your family. Negative Facts are never Good (Utilitarianism). All humans don't want to "hook up".
No thanks sir, to the "Dog imprisonment" after the inferior result, Evan Young. But, It could be possible for us to be non-connected, not gay, and not harmful friends if no implied contracts exist. All terms must be fair, written, told, and truly agreed-upon.
I wondered the same thing, and way back when this came out I had to go looking to see if there were women in the band. But they aren't the only band that has done that to me, Silversun Pickups has a lead singer that sings like a chick.
