Newest Industry Lyrics
Said we want a second chance, and all they say is toughA world where science went too far, there's no way to surviveWhy can't we get this thing straightened out, I want to stay aliveThey burned and bombed the east and north and there's no place left to goThe sun belt's overcrowded, so let's annex MexicoThe peso's only worth a dime, but they've got all that landNo need for a civil war, we know they'll understand, right?Is that how you like it?Factories left unattended, crumbling to the groundWe tried to keep them running, but there's no more oil aroundWe used it all to fight a war that neither side could winVietnam was Little League compared to where we've beenNow we live in caves and huts, and we don't have pay TVAnd everyone is signing up for the newest industryStandard Oil goes solar power, all try to make a buckSo I'll sit around and smoke cigarettes, and I'll babble "What the fuck?"
