The Cassandra Complex

The Cassandra Complex - Datakill 12" (1986)

lyrics

Electric eyes, cattle prods

Sticky tape recorders

Tear gas, barbed wire words

Games and economic behaviour

The name of this game is small high bizmanship

Small high bizmanship

We engineer technofear

Technofear

Shipping overseas to the promised land of gold and diamonds

Golden boys, golden girls

Shipping, shipping

Electric eyes, cattle prods

Sticky tape recorders

Tear gas, barbed wire words

Games and economic behaviour

Well, I know these things happen

I know people get killed

But I leave my work in the office

At home I play games

Games and economic behaviour

Digital stimulation

Datakill

State of the art, art of the state

Datakill

Lay your hands on our product

Lay your hands on us

I love this song. Whenever I'm feeling pissed off, it makes me feel pissed off in a more interesting way.

Used to play this on my radio show. WXDR, University of Delaware. Loved it and still do.

So ahead of its time - lyrics now more relevant than ever. One wonders if this could have influenced the early sound of Carter USM . . .
