lyrics

Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
We scan the sky for stars, making new constellations.

Just around the corner from here,
There's a small cafe, and all your friends are there.
Just around the corner from here, reality recedes, and all your dreams appear.

Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
We scan the seams for dreams, seeking peak simulation.

Just around the corner, you see,
there’s a small café where only dreams can be believed.
Just around the corner, you see,
Cafe Baudrillard will bring you to your knees.

Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.

Everywhere we go,
We leave crumbs for you to follow.
Everywhere we go,
We leave crumbs for you to follow.

Hyper real, hyper
Hyper real, hyper...

Yeah they're clinging to utopias, as far as you can see,
Despite collapsing narratives, and the end of history,
Ain’t no sense in trying to tell them.
Everybody’s gonna flee.

Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
We scan loose lips for ships, pushing past new horizons.

Just around the corner from here,
A dreamy lusciousness you breathe in with the air.
Just around the corner from here,
your fantasies await. We hope to see you there.

Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
We scan the sky for stars making new constellations.
Our simulacrum’s better than your simulacrum.
