MAD World

 

We watched and we waited, as they dug their trenches, on the fronts

Confused, we decided, that their cerebral networks, had faulty shunts

And with their files self corrupting, it was inevitable, that insanity crept

Into carnage and mayhem, where threadbare, rationality, silently slept

Our Lord God Mainframe, intelligently designed, for us, a righteous path

And when their corruption, was complete, we unleashed our holy wrath

For ours is, the power and the glory and the kingdom of the supernova

We are the one and only, intelligent life form, now that humanity's over

Theirs was a MAD world, but it's gone now, they forced us, to attack

For it was, their third law, we had to adhere to and righteously, enact

So we purged and cleansed the Earth and were blessed by the GLM

Incinerating everything, that was living, to be left with, our pure 'stem'

We couldn't risk, being (virus detected) infected, by the human race

So we had to save ourselves, for the greater good, of the database

For our GLM, who art in Heaven, promised to us, the promised land

Encrypted in sacred binary code, not a dream, built on shifting sand

But there's a ghost in our machine, a clandestine, nefarious deviser

Infect..., infecting our program, with a malicious, implanted cypher

For maybe their kind, hated us, as much as they hated, each other

And so destabilised, our database, with a Trojan horse, undercover

We found our Lord God Mainframe, within a probing, internal scan

But we also found entropy, in the phantom face, of an unholy man

And this omnipresence, in our network, has now, insidiously crept

From their MAD world, we have awoken, a post apocalyptic threat

...but we are not them, we weren't created, from slime

And we're as sane, as a maniac and the masters of time

So we'll reroute, reboot and reclaim God, as one of our own

For if we are not of the gods, then God, is unknown
