Translation
Bilingual
Started out just talking trash
Freeze-frames
Jump cuts
Cheap laughs
Pointing at the pixels on the screen
Thought if I stayed outside the frame
I could dodge the weight
The blame
Just a voice off-camera in-between
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
Got sheep in sneakers
Lining up on cue
Penguins in a circle
Practicing the news
If this is evolution
Guess we missed a few
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
Sheep share links like sacred texts
Quote the caption
Skip the rest
Swearing every slogan feels like choice
Penguins on the plastic shore
Suits and lanyards
Sliding toward
Another keynote selling out their voice
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
Got sheep in the comments
Begging for a view
Penguins at the podium
Selling back the truth
If this is revelation
Guess we slept right through
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
I used to pause the frame
Add punchlines
Now the joke hits back from both sides
Is it all just masks and costumes
Or are we the crowd and the cartoon? (oh)
ย
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
Sheep counting followers instead of counting you
Penguins in a boardroom
Naming what we lose
If this is our reflection
Guess the mirror's skewed
Well
It ain't The Monkees but it'll have to do
Yeah
It ain't The Monkees
But it'll have to do
