Текст песни: Cassette Tape Massacre + перевод

A cassette tape had spilled its guts on the sidewalk

And it did not take terror or torture to make it talk

Just an open passenger window

And a casual toss

Obliteration can be easy

It was made by a boy with a twenty-year old tape-deck

That he had borrowed from his mother

And kept forgetting to give back

Now Mom listens to a computer

Threw her tapes in the trash

Obsolescence came so easy

The? destruction was not intended to be cruel

She had not seen the boy

Since they graduated high school

And after all that’s riven of magnets

And a couple of plastic spools

Unraveling so easily

These things unravel so easily

She was on the way

Returning an old romantic movie

That she had not found charming

She did not see the beauty

That others had assured her

She was certain to see on the screen so easily

Yeah, sometimes you just got to throw it out the window

That robot you’ve been hiding like a weapon under your pillow

That thing won’t protect you

You ought to let it go

Even though it won’t be easy

Oh no, it won’t be easy
