about

This is our riff on the latest drama between Grimes and Elon Musk. What it really is, is a small critique of billionaires and their "legacies." Special thanks to Percy Bysshe Shelley for his legendary "Ozymandias," a fitting elegy for our modern rich.

lyrics

It's Like I Don't Know (Fuck You Elon Musk)

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

It's Like I Don't Know (Fuck You Elon Musk)
