The fields are dry the rivers are gone The sun burns hotter since the power turned on The robots hum where the workers once stood They said it’d help us but it don’t do no good

[Chorus] Oh AI's takin' the world Takin' it whole Eatin' up the water and swallowin' the coal We bow to machines while the skies turn black No man with a shovel ever gettin' it back

[Verse 2] The wires crawl like snakes in the dirt Jobs disappeared And man that hurts They talk about progress while we fall behind Steel don’t bleed but it sure takes its time

[Prechorus] They drink the lakes they steal the sun They said they’d stop but they ain’t done

[Chorus] Oh AI's takin' the world Takin' it whole Eatin' up the water and swallowin' the coal We bow to machines while the skies turn black No man with a shovel ever gettin' it back

[Bridge] Texas nights used to sing so sweet Now the wind’s just a whisper of electric defeat Every spark’s a thief Every byte’s a king And I can’t hear the blues for the cold metal ring
