I fidget with the digit dots
And cry an anxious tear
As the XU-1 connects the spot
But the matrix grid don't care
Get a message to my mother
What number would she be?
There's a million angry citizens
Looking down their tubes at me

There's safety in numbers, they say
'Cause the figures never lie
No perfect person's ever noticed one computer die
I'm programmed to a schedule
What will the answer be?
Is it suicide run 'til the work gets done
'Cause the matrix grid don't say?

Jammed up tight by a red traffic light
Advance one level on green
These opportune commuters
They're blasting on their hooters
I fidget with the digit dots
Frustration rules out there
As the XU-1 connects the spot
But the matrix grid don't care
