Brave New World
Intro
Veneficia!
Veneficia!
Seven trumpets!
Veneficia!
Verse 1
Easy, with a ballot, we can put a reality TV personality in DC
Speak free if you can see how this delicate fucking matter developed but man it beats me
(Oh my goooooood!)
two fleets keep peace on the mean streets
one treats brown people like they’re beastly
nothing like the force that police me
(that’s so odd!)
what’s the fate of the species?
get a metal plate and then mate with the PCs
or retreat back to a monkey chucking feces?
(What’s the deal?)
wanna ease this pain
different than the BC years
now we Bcc Jesus on the email chain
Way too many threats to flee
way too many heads to feed
Not too many beds to sleep
chief said that it was best you leave
F-U please to the refugees
And it’s seeming like it’s every other day that I been tugging at my collar thinking “damn it’s toasty”
where did all the people at the supermarket go that used to scan my groceries?
Vanished mostly
And wassup with all the homies in the camo and the ammo with the rifles on their shoulder walking through the city thinking that they’re Annie Oakley?
That’s quite enough
but this shit is fucking unbelievable
I swear you couldn’t write this this stuff
Chorus
Everywhere that I stare
(Veneficia!)
You couldn’t write this shit, no
Every minute, deeper in it
(Veneficia!)
Another fantasy is brought to life
Everywhere that I stare
(Science Fiction!)
You couldn’t write this shit, no
Every minute, deeper in it
(Veneficia!)
And now I never get surprised
Verse 2
Young George Jetson stepping up in this motherfucker gripping a butcher knife hoping I can cut the chord
Where the horde is plugged to the motherboard
That is not a legitimate hoverboard
(shit’s got wheels!)
I Iook at the sky saying “my god run!”
Life’s heavier than an ipod one
My twitter ain’t gonna matter when the tripods come
(Let’s get real!)
From the hieroglyphs to the crowded malls
Never mind if, but the how it falls
I’m vibing out watching Ow! My Balls
(Oh yeaaaaa)
core defects tend to wreck my sleep
the quest to be more perfect than Ford Prefect
while I’m dreaming of Electric Sheep
Cause Soylent Green is people
resistance is just futile
Pop a red pill and a blue pill and I dilate my pupils
Moving light speed
we all got vile needs
living is a violent deed
spread my soul like Wild Seed
Why would it be any wonder I act weird?
I’m trying to find out who the fuck I am while looking in a cracked Black Mirror
You got a finish that you thought about?
How this is gotta bottom out?
You wanna flee the reaper but they’re bombing the city and the single haven to creep in is the slaughterhouse

[@Reminji]

"that is not a legitimate hoverboard (it's got wheeeeels)" my all-time favorite watsky line, so true.

[@gregtheinfinite]

that awkward moment when you realize even George Watsky makes a better Lex Luthor than Jesse Eisenberg.

[@4RedDwarf3]

Who else tried to scroll up to make the video larger?

[@gwatsky]

My first album in 2 years, 'x Infinity,' was just released and available everywhere now. Hitting the road for tour in less than 2 weeks. Enjoy!

[@Childishness]

This was 4 years ago? Feels like it could’ve been written yesterday

[@cuggs2063]

this gives me modest mouse vibes

[@StrawmnMcPerson]

y'all… homie wrote this

[@WateverWatever04]

I'm happy to see Watsky is as annoyed at the so-called hoverboards we have 😂

[@immenme]

Who is that boy? How does he rap so good?

[@WhiteCollarCrimeDNB]

For as (rightfully) serious and angry as you've gotten you still manage to make me laugh. "IT'S GOT WHEELS!"

[@jwb4291]

Director: Hey Watsky what do you have in mind for this music video?

[@seabb]

There's so much meaning to be found in Watsky's lyrics. I always rewatch videos multiple times to make sure I didn't miss anything. Then I pick through the lyrics and if there's a reference I don't understand I google it. Then I rewatch the video with the lyrics to put everything in context.

[@MrTombombodil]

"And it's seeming like it's every other day that I been tugging at my collar

[@ElliottMorgan]

So goddang good.

[@moerockha625]

6 years strong, still coming back to this gem.

[@RumleKjaer]

HOLY MOTHERFUCKING SHIT THIS IS SO FREAKING GOOD. THE SONG, THE BEAT, THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT WENT INTO THE VFX!!!!

[@mitchmarvinmartian]

This is Watsky warning us that if he 'disappears' it's because we realized he was trying to change the world for the better and they had to take him away.

[@TyTurner]

I've watched this video I don't know how many times and just noticed the summit ice shirt omg

[@GamingCurios]

my boy watsky

[@vaterchenfrost7481]

This one is one of my new favorits. It should have gotten more recognition. As a skill indication of the involved crew and artist it is a mile stone. Melody, rythm, it's syncopies and brakes, the rap, the chorus, lyrics, vibe - only compliments.
