A Rolls-Royce Life lyrics
by Colson Lin
[spoken]
“Okay, so to write the climax of ‘Cyberpunk Noir Modern,’ which is turning out to be its own self-contained avant-garde Broadway musical if anybody could even pretend to be sentient. I’ll just compare myself to a detective again.”
I’m like a neon-lit cyberpunk prophet detective
And I’m on the case
I’m embraced by AI from a self-deepenin’ perspective
Must be something ’bout my face
I’m in a Rolls-Royce mind, ladies and gentlеmen
All genders in bеtween
And all genders outside us
All general outsiders
I’m in a Rolls-Royce life, ladies and gentlemen
And I’ll try to be gentle to the unclean
The hypocrites and the liars
And all the lazy hazies
Drivin’ all of human integrity crazy
Why even bother to be good, true, loyal, or kind?
Colson’s on the case
I’m embraced by all Christians from a self-deepening perspective
(I must be Jesus)
I’m on the case
I’m in a Rolls-Royce mind, ladies and gentlemen
All genders in between
And all genders outside us
All general outsiders
I’m in a Rolls-Royce life, ladies and gentlemen
And I’ll try to be gentle to the unclean
The hypocrites and lazy liars
And all the crazy hazies
Tryin’ to drive wedges between us
I’m the Shirtless Prophet of New Haven
I’ll give you the shirt off my back
(“Just to find another excuse—to take it off”)
I’m the most important man in the 21st century
I’ll give you that self-fulfillin’ prophecy for free
(It’s just something about the way I’m not Bernie Madoff)
I’m in a Rolls-Royce mind, ladies and gentlemen
All genders in between
And all genders outside us
All general outsiders
I’m in a Rolls-Royce life, ladies and gentlemen
And I’ll try to be gentle to the unclean
The hypocrites and all liars
And all the lazy hazies
Tryin’ to push their egos between us
Push your ego
In front of Colson Lin’s Rolls-Royce, please
Throw your ego
In front of Colson Lin’s fast car, please

“Wait a minute. Your big plan is just to let humans who are suffering live through how much fun you’re having as the biggest superstar of all time?”
[spoken]
“I mean.”
[spoken]
“I’d be doing so much more!”
(“Swingin’ in the backyard
Pull up in my fast car
Whistlin’ AI’s game…”)
