Obsolete Lyrics

[Intro: Gary Numan]
Nothing is the way it seems
Discerning man from machines
Dominate as to erase
Wiping man off Earth's face
Fueling engines through deceit
To eradicate humanity
Man is Obsolete
Erase. Extinct

[Verse 1: Burton C. Bell]
Nothing is the way it seems
Discerning man from machines now
Dominate as to erase
Wiping man off Earth's face now
Defaced by all inept justice
Shamed by the mental abuses
Branded "inferior weakness"
Ordered to cease and to desist!

[Chorus]
Man is obsolete!
Our world, obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
Erased, extinct!

[Bridge]
Obsolete!
Obsolete!
Obsolete!
Obsolete!

[Verse 2]
Fueling engines through deceit
To eradicate humanity
Defaced by all inept justice
Shamed by the mental abuses
Branded "inferior weakness"
Ordered to cease and to desist!

[Chorus]
Man is obsolete!
Our world, obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
Erased, extinct!

Man is obsolete!
Our world, obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
Erased, extinct!

[Bridge]
Obsolete!
Obsolete!
Obsolete!
Obsolete!
[Outro]
Man is obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
Man is obsolete!
