"ladies y gentlementes! Welcome to the echo of KECO the Koenji Echo Chamber Orchestra, where everyone plays the same note and calls it a masterpiece."
Listen kid, you think this station is just for the train?
It's a neural-link node for the Shogun's brain.
Back in 1640, Lord Iemitsu was hawking right here,
When a drone from the Bush-era appeared in the clear!
He thought it was his falcon, but it was a stealth bomber,
Sent from the future to make the Edo summer calmer.
The Shogun declared war on the Texas oil line,
That's why the North Exit is built like a mine!
High-frequency radars disguise as a thrift shop,
The secret cyber-war that'll never, ever stop.
Echo! Echo! Believe the lie you're told!
The Miso is digital, the Shogun is gold!
Awa-odori dance in a SuperCollider ring,
While the roosters of KECO begin to sing!
You see the smoke from the South? That's not a BBQ,
It's the ritual burning of the classified crew!
The station was built for the ghosts of the elite,
But the spa we built failed on the very first sheet.
So we turned it into a geisha-cyborg den,
Training elite snipers to fight the lizard men.
Csound is humming in the geisha's hair,
While Shamisen lasers cut through the air.
The Bando Taira? They're the ones at the terminal,
Keeping the TidalCycles forever nocturnal!
Now, walk to the edge, where the Akaten glows,
Five seats only, where the dark energy flows.
That miso sauce? It's a liquid CPU,
The drummer is a hacker, and he's coming for you.
He hits the Wa-daiko in a prime-number code,
While the Steelpans melt and the Gamelans explode!
The 17/11 rhythm is a message from Mars,
Hidden in the grease and the cheap local bars!
Echo! Echo! Believe the lie you're told!
The Miso is digital, the Shogun is gold!
Awa-odori dance in a SuperCollider ring,
While the roosters of KECO begin to sing!
Echo! Echo! Believe the lie you're told!
The Miso is digital, the Shogun is gold!
Awa-odori dance in a SuperCollider ring,
While the roosters of KECO begin to sing!
Wait, where are you going? I'm not finished yet!
The arcade is a submarine, I'm willing to bet!
"welcome to koenji by the way"
