Magic Internet Money

Lyrics

Okay, let's do this.

The year is 2013.
The glow is blue-white from a screen.
Some dude on /g/ is bored, you know the scene.
Draws a dumb little hat, MS Paint, kinda mean.
A wizard hat. Cute.
Captions it like he's dropping truth.
"magic internet money."
lol.
So funny.

Magic internet money, honey.
Bless your little crypto heart.
You thought the joke was just the start.
Magic internet money, honey.
You printed out the meme and framed it on your wall.
Waited for the call.
The punchline is you believe it all.

It spreads from board to board, a little seed of light.
From irony to "bro, he might be right."
The wizard hat's a symbol in the night.
For every kid who lost a real-world fight.
Satoshi is the god who never speaks.
The whitepaper's the scripture for the geeks.
The joke's not funny after a few weeks.
Now it's a church for financial freaks.

Magic internet money, honey.
Bless your little HODL heart.
You thought the joke was just the start.
Magic internet money, honey.
You tattooed the meme right there above your knee.
For all the world to see.
The punchline is you aren't free.

You built a new cathedral from a png.
You built a new religion from a jpeg.
You thought you were escaping history.
But you just made a newer, faster golden egg.
The wizard is a banker in a different hat.
The spell is just a ledger, and that is that.
From a 4chan thread, ephemeral and flat.
Look at you now. A digital aristocrat.

Magic... internet... money...
Such wow. Very finance.
Magic... internet... money...
The joke is that there was no joke.
lol.
