Algorithm Napping

SONG: Don’t Let the Algorithm Catch You Napping

Verse 1
I was drifting through the wires
Half-awake, half-sold
Every click a little mirror
Every feed a hand to hold

Pre-Chorus
It knows what you like
Before you do
It’s watching the pauses
Between what’s true

Chorus
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
Eyes wide open, mind still free
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
It’s learning you faster than you’re learning me

Verse 2
Scroll goes down, time goes thin
Comfort wrapped in déjà vu
Same old jokes, same old fears
Served up fresh like something new

Pre-Chorus
It feeds on habit
It drinks your days
Turns your wonder
Into grooves and ruts and plays

Chorus
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
Shake the dream, break the stream
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
You’re more than a pattern, more than a theme

Bridge (call & response works great here)
Who’s driving? — Not the wheel!
Who’s choosing? — How you feel!
Who’s watching? — We all are!
Then wake up now — Wherever you are!

Final Chorus
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
Stand up in your own surprise
Don’t let the algorithm catch you napping
Human’s not a setting you can optimize

Outro
Log off for a second
Look around the room
The world’s still bigger
Than your recommended doom
