Environmental Anxiety. Lyrics

How did you ever think?
How did you ever think it wasn't bound to happen?
We poisoned the waterfalls
Set fires to our rivers of hope
The end of us all, well, it was always bound to happen
To happen

Come on kids, it's time to vote
Boris Johnson's sniffing coke
All the children are depressed
Not the future we had hoped
Little girls aren't safe at home
She's scrolling up and down her phone
She hates her lifе, she hates hersеlf
And she's 12 years old
These social apps are now a good system
For views and likes and shares
We find peace from drugs and sex
And prescription anxiety meds
Sweep the truth under the rug
Feed us plastic, GMO corpse
We don't need self-motivation
Robots will take all our jobs

How did we ever think?
How did we ever think it wasn't bound to happen?
We poisoned the waterfalls
And set fires to our rivers of hope
We're all gonna die, but what do we do before it happens?
It happens?

You turn a blind eye when the drunk man falls
Did you ever think why is the drunk man drunk?
The system failed, 2 kids in jail
And the rich get rich, and the rest get sunk
Classist, sexist, racist, ableist
Fascists, ageist, homophobic
Country leaders fucked our futures
And they think we haven’t noticed
Forest burning, oils spills
Melting ice and methane gas
Toxic waste and plastic fish
We’re digging holes to hide our trash
Unity reeks in all our songs
But we drew borders as we cross our land
A thousand years we've been at war
When the planet is dead, we will all hold hands

How did we ever think?
How did we ever think it wasn't bound to happen?
We poisoned the waterfalls
And set fires to our rivers of hope
We're all gonna die, but what do we do before it happens?
It happens?

Attention citizens
Please evacuate the country in an orderly fashion
And leave behind any personal belongings
Umm, that you don't need
