Technological destruction

All of these ‘advancements’ are just giving me a migraine
As a society, we have let technology control us with its mind games
We always need, always want, what we have is never enough
But consumerism is a disease that will turn our planet into dust
Give the kids their iPads, their computers, and their phones
We’ll help the corporations train them into being mindless drones
Apple, Microsoft, and Windows will soon hold more importance
Than our families and friends who were always there to hold us
Because who needs people, really? Well, nobody of course!
Why would I need mom or dad when electronics can run their post?
