  With the latest craze 
  When the most obsolete things 
  Are all the rage?

  The freer we become 

  When work is the model and the core 
  Please marginalise 
  The harsh necessities that tend to arise

  Please marginalise 
  The harsh necessities that tend to arise 

  The more energy we burn

  The masters of our own death 
  The sun mocks the clouds 

  But he had needs back in his real life 
  Is this what he meant by luxury?
