lyrics

I heard that they store the summer
In a container park
They've taken down the scenery
And it's cold
And it's dark
This wasn't the year that we dreamed it would be
And I know that you're sick of the sight of me, but
Baby, baby, please:

Don't let the algorithm pick my Christmas present
Don't let the algorithm choose my gift
It did not lend a hand to your charity, and
It did not help your plans
It did not share my band, so
Baby, baby please

All I want to do is snooze through Avatar
Maybe in a couple of days
Take a slow walk
To a reservoir
This wasn't the year that we dreamed it would be
And I know that you're sick of the sight of me, but
Baby, baby, please

If your ears are cold
Then the monolith's cold
If your fingers are cold
Then the monolith's cold
And if your heart grows cold
Then the monolith's cold
You've got to let it in
You've got to bring it home

But don't let the algorithm pick my Christmas present
Don't let the algorithm choose my gift
It did not lend a hand to your charity, and
It did not help your plans
It did not share my band, so
Baby, baby please
