♫ It got too hot and so
we overthrew the system
♫ 'Cause there's no place
♫ for human existence like right here
♫ On this bright blue
marble orbited by trash
♫ Man, there's no beating that
♫ It was no big thing to give
up the way of life we had
♫ My social life is now
quite a bit less hectic
♫ The nightlife and the
protests are pretty scarce
♫ Now I mostly spend the long
days walking through the city
♫ Empty as a tomb
♫ Sometimes I miss the
top of the food chain
♫ But what a perfect afternoon
♫ Industry and commerce
toppled to their knees
♫ The gears of progress halted
♫ The underclass set free
♫ The super-ego shatters
with our ideologies
♫ The obscene injunction to enjoy life
♫ Disappears as in a dream
♫ And as we return to our native state
♫ To our primal scene
♫ The temperature, it started dropping
♫ The ice floes began to freeze
♫ From time to time we
all get a bit restless
♫ With no one advertising to us constantly
♫ But the tribe at the former airport
♫ Some nights has meat and dancing
♫ If you don't mind gathering and hunting
♫ We're all still pretty
good at eating on the run
♫ Things it would have been helpful
♫ to know before the revolution
♫ Though I'll admit some
degree of resentment
♫ For the sudden lack of
convenience around here
♫ But there are some visionaries
♫ among us developing some products
♫ To aid us in our struggle to survive
♫ On this godless rock that refuses to die
