Hi There - from the title I was half expecting something *really* challenging but what I got was  the usual great commentary and insightful lyrics (love the line about looking at a screen and not into the eyes, it's easier to lie) and a really catchy song.
Your vocals sounding great too and really suit the production and the theme!

CS,
Liked to the intro and into a neat verse and then the tempo change for the chorus. Smart lyrics as ever.
Then we go off on the AI alien rap and phycodeletic solo, which I thought was absolutely fab :-)
The production and vocals are so much more confident. No issue with structure either, it works for you, go with it.
Cleaver, fun and catchy.
Kept my attention throughout.

Hi Suzy
Another fun scary song from you!
I mean scary in the lyrical sense if you know what I mean  :D Robots taking over and what-not.
Lots of mad twists and turns holds interest for 4 mins
Good work from the left coast  ;D

Paul
Sorry I didn't mean to scare you Paul ;D ;D And I don't really think robots are taking over...at least not yet   :o :o
With all the ADD out there, it's hard to keep anyone's interest for more than 2mins, so glad it kept yours for 4mins ;D ;D

I'm writing as I listen. It has your distinctive style which I really always enjoy. Love your vocals. Lyrics are fun. Great commentary on current society. Reminds me of Sparks and the Residents, but with a fresh sweetness from your voice. Really enjoyed it.

Hi Crystal Suzy,

The lyrics are pure genius, so witty & apt. The way you effortless blend in those sound effects is amazing.

Wrote you a long response. . . and it timed out on me.  I'm not sure if that's the new forum, or something in my computer. . . but lately, I haven't been able to leave anything here that took any time to think through and type. 

I'll re-do it later.  Past my bedtime now.

Really good.
So much creativity, I was reminded of Zappa.
I was drawn in at the beginning with that first tempo change. 
The rest of the song is fun with concise insightful lyrics   
I like the guitar solo. 

Well done.
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

And there you have it.
