Human Resources

human resources I was watching this music video: Human Resources (*WARNING* VIDEO IS NOT WORK SAFE!)

I thought the tune was rather catchy and it was actually a somewhat cool music video, stitched together with a bunch of clips from 80’s movies and TV shows.

I don’t know who the artist is and no one seems to have posted the lyrics yet, but I’ve ripped the song from the video to an mp3 and uploaded to my site: Listen / Download

Update:Thanks to softskilled for notifying me the artist/band is actually called Countdown. You should check out their album: Scratch & Sniff.

Here are the lyrics:

What’s your name and number and where do you sleep?
What is the color of your hair? We’ll be discrete.
And what’s your sexual preference or religious ties?
Do you have any diseases or political ties?
And we will need to know exactly the color of your eyes.
And have you ever done drugs or have you ever lied?
And need a fingerprint please. And what’s your mother’s maiden name?
And have any family members ever gone insane?

We’re the human resources.
We need to know what your every choice is.
What you like to drink, fight, fuck, and your voices now.
We are the human resources.

Where do you buy your clothes and do you rent or own?
Have you ever been arrested? Do you have a cell phone?
Do you find that people always like you right away?
Have you ever stolen something? Just forgotten to pay?
Do you have any children, or dogs, or cats?
And do you buy your cigarettes in cartons or packs?
Do you prefer to be on top? Do you like coffee or tea?
We just need a little more information please.

We’re the human resources.
We need to know what your every choice is.
What you like to drink, fight, fuck, and your voices now.
We are the human resources.

And we will need to know exactly the color of your eyes.
And have you ever done drugs or have you ever lied?
And we’ll then need a fingerprint. And what’s your mother’s maiden name?
And have any family members ever gone insane?

We’re the human resources.
We need to know what your every choice is.
What you like to drink, fight, fuck, and your voices now.
We are the human resources.

We’re the human resources.
We need to know what your every choice is.
What you like to drink, fight, fuck, and your voices now.
We are the human resources.

We are the human resources.

Hello.

There is one line that I’m not sure if it’s correct:
What you like to drink, fight, fuck, and your voices now.

It just doesn’t seem to sound right… If you can actually hear what they’re saying, please do tell me.

  1. The band is The Countdown. Very nice album, the one containing the song Humand Resources. I heard this first by listening to pandora.com (the root was Nine Inch Nails for deriving the songs). If you liked that maybe Zeromancer will also please you.
