lirik lagu the mechanisms - 'olympians'
[spoken: jonny d’ville]
and so, drunk on a c-cktail of whiskey and regret, it wasn’t difficult for our erstwhile quartet of psychos to sn-tch a cracked and sagging ulysses to be dragged down here. lightless depths of the city, some rusted-out under p-ssage lit only by an neon sign, glowing over the door to a long-forgotten vault. a sign that reads “penelope”
bam! the biggest of the suits slams his fist into ulysses’ face again and repeats the question
[heracles]
“what’s the code to the vault, -sshole?”
[jonny d’ville]
ulysses just bleeds at the f-cker, so the big guy’s fist comes down again. this continues for some time
[orpheus]
“why is it labelled penelope? who is she?”
[jonny d’ville]
this question from a pale, thin young man at the back, altogether unsuited to the rough company he’s running with. he’s answered by an old motherf-cker off to the corner, dark gl-sses hiding blind eyes
[oedipus]
“she’s not living anywhere in the city, and you won’t find any record of her in the acheron.”
[jonny d’ville]
and everybody knows, if you’re not alive and you’re not in the acheron, you don’t exist. a stern-faced woman at the side cuts in, ending the discussion
[ariadne]
“it doesn’t matter. what matters is that we are being very well paid to retrieve whatever is inside it. and i doubt any of you want to fail an olympian.”
[jonny d’ville]
at this point some words of explanation are needed. understand, a whole planet covered with steel and wire needs a lot of computing power to run. and there’s no processor more powerful or abundant than the brain. so you have the acheron, a vast network of dead minds, however badly damaged, plugged in and kicked back into a half-conscious h-ll to run the city. all ruled over by a mad b-st-rd by the name of hades
now, when the inevitable reality of death is so unpleasant, you better believe people will do anything to avoid it. and in the city you can buy anything, if you have a wallet thick enough for what it costs and a stomach strong enough for what it takes. so you have the olympians: the oldest, richest and meanest families who can afford to life forever. and ulysses managed to p-ss one of them off
shortly after the war, our hero conceived some ill-thought-out revenge on poseidon industries, one of the architects of the conflict. decided to steal something from them. the perfect diamond at the heart of the cyclops: the industrial laser in poseidon’s flagship workshop. wasn’t a great plan. just got drunk and walked in
