Ministry - Cannibal Song

Fourth song of the 1989 album The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste.
CVT Temp wrote:I mean, we can actually create a mathematical definition for evolution in terms of the evolutionary algorithm and then write code to deal with abstract instances of evolution, which basically equates to mathematical proof that evolution works. All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

VIP - Messiah J and the Expert.
Album: Now This I Have To Hear (2006).
Genre: Irish hip-hop.

He starts to visualize his own time:
Seventy-eight eventful years crammed into a page-and-a-half with a nice border...
"Does anybody out there even care?"
And then his eyes go blurry and out the curtain he stares,
And wonders how the death page became his current affairs.
He tries to block emotions, says, "It's all a waste of breath.
I'm one drop in the ocean on this old conveyor belt."
He thinks about significance, starts philosophizing -
Another day, another death, another cross, surmising.
[...]
Our old friend starts to cry, but wears a smile through his tears.
All the good times, the weekends, came flooding back in mirrors,
The happy memories to drown all the facts and figures.
Every name to a face, every tombstone a heart;
He saw the gatherings, loves, pastimes, passions, and art -
"Although I am a number, I'm a very special digit!"
He took a last gasp in the house he'd always lived in,
And jumped into those pages,
Another VIP for someone in tomorrow's papers.


Such a haunting song about dementia and the end, which leads me to ask why this duo fell off the face of the Earth and why they didn't garner more popularity. A damn crying shame.

Yeah, it's a great song.
I thought that whole album (Anomaly) was somewhat solid actually...aside from the awful CCM-influenced production in the second half.
