Modern Moonlight Lyrics - Yes Virginia - The Dresden Dolls

Presenting modern moonlight just as advertised 

Coke and Pepsi finally found a compromise 

How can they complain that we're all fucked up kids 

When they keep on changing who our mother is? 

Like it all you want it's fruitless 

Night is in the way of progress 

Retinas are bleeding for the enterprise 

Surgically wired into paradise 

Yesterday I dropped in at the MKB 

Everyone was messaging like it was going out of style 

(It was just the cynic in me) 

God, I love communicating! 

I just hate the shit we're missing 

Everybody join in the magnificence 

Yes! everything is absolutely making sense 

Every time you turn around your soul gets sold 

To the highest bidder 

Then they turn around and merger and they merger 

And the merger and they murder and they murder 

The one who murders most will take it all 

Fight it all you want it's useless 

Night is in the way of progress 

We're gonna take your cities one by one 

Catch your cables cut your cords and spoil all your fun 

We're gonna make your lite a living hell 

Cause stripped of your equipment you'll be forced to face yourself 

Wire cutters of the world 

You know what to use it for 

Spread the word to all the tightrope walker boys and girls 

Brace yourself for miracles 

You're in for a nasty shock 

When the war is over 

You can read the paper
