Lyrics and everything else by Jon Hoekstra and his guitar If the algorithm rules, you’ll never hear this song I’m at the bottom of a queue that’s an infinitude long If the algorithm rules, I know I’ll never break through I don’t have the looks, I don’t have the hooks, and I don’t have the moves But if the algorithm’s RIGHT, that’s a sad state of play All we do is fight, and look to pin the blame Oh if the algorithm’s right, we must be doing something wrong - oh so wrong ‘Cause that algorithm never would've given us our favorite songs: Fishin’ Blues: needs a better hook. Ballad of Tom Joad: might as well read the book King of the Road: No vagrancy. Heartbreak Hotel: No vacancy If the algorithm rules, I’ve hit my a-po-gee At 23 views and one like from someone who lives with me If the algorithm rules, I’m throwing my time away But I’ll keep doing what I’m doing, writing songs, and saying what I’ve got to say And if the algorithm’s right, we’re about done in Eviction note’s posted on the gold-plated door of this gilded palace of sin REFRAIN Pancho & Lefty: too easy on Lefty, I suppose. Wayfarin’ Stranger: that’s a bummer, fo’ sho Amazing Grace: too straight-laced, ‘n way too slow. Dark as a Dungeon: how low can you go? If the algorithm rules, we ought to take control Turn down the anger, ease up on the sex, crank up the love and the soul If the algorithm rules, won’t you put it in my hands Let me slide the faders, over-ride my worst nature, and make myself a better man REFRAIN Dock of the Bay: let's hustle now, Otis! Over the Rainbow: Keep dreaming, darlin’ This Land is Your Land: No Trespassing. Wagon Wheel: didn’t ya hear it’s been canceled REFRAIN Yes if the algorithm’s right, we must be doing something wrong, wrong, wrong ‘Cause I take it as a given, that algorithm, never would've given us our favorite songs
Here's to obscurity! Nice song too!
Yippi aye Yippie oh Yippee Io cow Patty yahoo!
@@andyrehm okay!
Lyrics and everything else by Jon Hoekstra and his guitar
If the algorithm rules, you’ll never hear this song
I’m at the bottom of a queue that’s an infinitude long
If the algorithm rules, I know I’ll never break through
I don’t have the looks, I don’t have the hooks, and I don’t have the moves
But if the algorithm’s RIGHT, that’s a sad state of play
All we do is fight, and look to pin the blame
Oh if the algorithm’s right, we must be doing something wrong - oh so wrong
‘Cause that algorithm never would've given us our favorite songs:
Fishin’ Blues: needs a better hook. Ballad of Tom Joad: might as well read the book
King of the Road: No vagrancy. Heartbreak Hotel: No vacancy
If the algorithm rules, I’ve hit my a-po-gee
At 23 views and one like from someone who lives with me
If the algorithm rules, I’m throwing my time away
But I’ll keep doing what I’m doing, writing songs, and saying what I’ve got to say
And if the algorithm’s right, we’re about done in
Eviction note’s posted on the gold-plated door of this gilded palace of sin
