*Opening music*
A car on the highway, shot of the front of car.
Fitter, happier, more productive, comfortable, not drinking too much.
Side view of the automobile, showing a little bit that a man is inside.
Regular exercise at the gym, three days a week, Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries.
Inside view of the car, you see the man is frail and weak.
At ease, Eating well. (no more microwave dinners and saturated fats)
Shot of the man's eyes, which are red, he looks like he about to cry.
A patient better driver, A safer car. (baby smiling in back seat)
Shot of the back seat which is filled with nothing, shot of man looking in the back with a look of worry and sadness.
Sleeping well (no bad dreams) No paranoia Careful to all animals. (no washing spiders down the plughole)
Man turns back around to look at the street, a shot of the back bumper to reveal a sticker that says "Jesus Loves Me".
Man rests his head on the steering wheel.
Charity standing orders, On Sunday ring road supermarket, No killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants.
Closeup shot of the man's head area, he starts squeezing the steering wheel while resting his head on it.
Car wash. (also on Sundays) No longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows.
Nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate. Nothing so childish.
Still the closeup shot, the man is whispering something to himself, begins the look angry.
At a better pace, Slower and more calculated, No chance of escape, Now self-employed, Concerned (but powerless)
Tries to bury his face in his arms, he starts crying.
An empowered and informed member of society (pragmatism not idealism)
Will not cry in public, Less chance of illness, Tyres that grip in the wet
(shot of baby strapped in back seat)
Shot of the empty back seat, then a shot of the empty passenger seat.
A good memory, Still cries at a good film, Still kisses with saliva.
Shot of man shaking his head in his arms. Suddenly he kicks the glove box, then starts hitting and kicking wildly and franticly, he is yelling and tears stream like flowing water from his eyes, he continues until the rest of the song is over.
The shot changes to an overhead view of the car, which in the middle of an empty highway, the car is not moving at all.
A pig, In a cage, On antibiotics.
End.
The total idea of the video if that a computer voice that has absolutely no emotion is "describing" the condition of a man who is literally exploding with rage and sadness, it's kind of an irony thing.
for the sequel, see paranoid android.
