Album | Dead Decade |
Give it up baby, don’t bother turning around | |
The tower started shaking, your city burned to the ground | |
Some said “it’s our lot” well, thanks a lot, “pass the the salt”, and “shut up” | |
Babel babble small talk, another flood and we’ll drown | |
Dear Mary, your son looked so scary, after hanging uptown | |
Lord knows that his dad don’t care if, we’re double crossed and let down | |
Let’s leave together | |
On holiday to our holocaust | |
You’ll love the weather | |
The heat is up and the hell’s got frost | |
Sit back, enjoy decay | |
This is the dead decade | |
Landfills, oil spills – those dolphins ain’t laughing now | |
Fields of blood, trees are cut – why ask if they make a sound? | |
There’s Danny in his pit of lions – he knows the zoo’s outside | |
The whale found no place to hide in – Jonah had an easier ride | |
Let’s leave together | |
On holiday to our holocaust | |
You’ll love the weather | |
You know the heat is up and the world’s got lost | |
There’s nothing left to save | |
In a d – d – d - dead decade | |
We’re living in a dead decade, oh | |
Still thinking we will get out save, so | |
All those who say “don’t fear tomorrow” | |
they sound so hollow | |
We’re dancing as our world decays, yeah | |
Death marching us in its parade and | |
See how our children follow | |
in sorrow tomorrow | |
Keep playing all your deadly games | |
Mom’s worried but we’re not afraid | |
Who knows if we’ll be here tomorrow | |
But till then just follow | |
We’re living in a dead decade, Aww | |
Still thinking that we have time to play and | |
All those who told us weep or follow | |
Have managed to destroy tomorrow |
Give it up baby, don' t bother turning around | |
The tower started shaking, your city burned to the ground | |
Some said " it' s our lot" well, thanks a lot, " pass the the salt", and " shut up" | |
Babel babble small talk, another flood and we' ll drown | |
