E-male of the species

he's a Y2 caveman
cruising through cyberspace
with his lap-top dancer
delete file :- human race

the virtually perfect

e-male of the species
sending sordid secrets
on a well woven web

he used to have a female

but now that he is E-male
his hard drives' in the p.c.
his brood worship the t,v,

'cause life got in the way of his dreams

nothing left to hold him, so it seems
freedom gives him beer to drink
numbs the un-cool urge to think
of broken pledges rashly made
as silent children's smiles just fade

feasting on a mega-bite
Y2 caveman looses sight
of wife and kids in human mode
cannot see what he can't download

Fe-male wants to pull the plug

knows her man is gone for good
loves respect is on its knees
to the E-male of the species

children playing late at night

soaked and spoiling for a fight
Y2K has lost their trust
now their life is "shit or bust"

they're living together appart

lieing together appart
crying together appart
dieing together appart
