Lyrics

35 34 31 54 12 24 45 43

Lives passing through Arcadia
Erase the senses with a cryptic paranoia
You play the game inside the ROM
With higher functions to deliver the amnesia

Polybius
You’re like an octopus climbing in a tree
Polybius
Dark Basic vectors to consume the memory

35 34 31 54 12 24 45 43

2/6 2k is zero day
Consume, submit, obey, a coin buys euphoria
KK@ClickTo.com
The Usenet myth began the day when he posted

The story was too big to kill
Inscribed in folklore echoed in forum posts still
An in-joke for arcade fans of spooky allusion
And for low-effort listicles, an essential inclusion
An indelible myth but at least we know the deal
Polybius never existed but the legend is real

Polybius
You’re like an octopus climbing in a tree
Polybius
Dark Basic vectors to consume the memory
