Soma

Soma
Will they ever
Know ya
Will they ever
Show ya
Soma
Soma
Soma
Need more
SOMA!

This short verse highlights the human obsession with detachment from reality - through the medium of Soma (a drug concocted by Huxley in his Brave New World). the rhetorical question 'Will they ever' enforces the sense that there is a fundamental uncertainty about whether Soma is a benign of a malignant force.
