Uncanny Valley

(spoken) *flashing cameras* over here!
That's it, smile!
To your left
Come on now!
Face me!
SMILE!

Child actors and movie stars
Acting from three, then put behind bars
Their sweet little souls, sold to the devil
Trapped away in hell's frame
For ten years of fame
Go to rehab, go to jail, do something wrong
Then be remembered as a cunt, an icon
Thin them out like paper sheets
Copy and paste, actresses in fleets
Cuz it never really sat right with me
It really scares me
The way the entertainment industry
Can ruin a child so easily
*flashing cameras*

They'll spend hours on camera, day after day
Most of them end up in rehab anyway
Teach 'em young, while they are fresh
Use them for money, ruin their lives
They'll gain addictions and carry 'round knives
You'll slice off their weight till they're thin as paper
Child exploiter, celebrity maker
Cuz it never really sat right with me
The way child stars all grow up to be
Ruined addicts and repeat offenders
How the entertainment industry can just easily ruin their whole futures
Can't live casually
Can't live naturally
Can't live with their family
They're all the same, reset and repeat
They're all end up the same, Uncanny Valley
*flashing cameras and cheering*

They'll be rushing for vodka by the age of eight *glug glug*
And by the time they're twenty it'll be too late
Offer them weed and offer them snow
Overworking and flashing cameras is all they'll ever know
Let Them be, let them live naturally
Don't force them down Uncanny Valley
It never really sat right with me
The way the entertainment industry
Can ruin a little life so quickly and easily
How fast they all fall down, Uncanny Valley
The conditions and treatment, kept secret and vile
And remember kids, don't forget to smile
*flashing cameras*

Rape, assault, drug abuse
It's unkind, Uncanny, its vile
Don't you feel bad You did this to a
*loud and scary* CHILD?

It amazes me
The way the entertainment industry
Can ruin a child or teen so quickly
So easily
Can't live naturally
Uncanny
Its Uncanny
It's freaky
It's wrong
Its cruel
It's horrible
It's vile
Don't forget to smile
Offer them weed and offer them snow
Overworking and flashing cameras is all they'll ever know
Let Them be, let them live naturally
Don't force them down Uncanny Valley
It never really sat right with me
The way the entertainment industry
Can ruin a little life so quickly and easily
How fast they all fall down, Uncanny Valley
*flashing cameras*
*crying*
*gulping*
*sniffing*
*clock ticking*
