The secret buzzing greenscape of the outskirts of the town Lay in breathy anticipation of the storm. The birch swayed as it was drunk, too drunk to care Too drunk and desolate to even be irate, to care about anything at all. The love stashed in the warm brown soil in the outskirts of the town Had hidden from the ravages of men. Its bleeding blood and dreams of roads not taken Through teary tears forgiven not to ever be seen again. All the birds are missing from the outskirts of the town They didn't know where north lay anymore. They flew where the wind would take them, but the wind forsake them, None of them are with us anymore. There was one figure standing there, in the outskirts of the town, At daybreak they could see what nothing left, and nothing yet to come. They felt the voltage on their neck, the storm was drawing near, There will be nothing nothing when it finally is here.

The Stars 07:12
Put it in first Pump the pedal Your future is Right around the bend Slowly first But'ya gotta keep pushing Don't worry you'll Get there in the end Now switch to second Careful with the clutch You gotta keep momentum Right until it's time to rest (Keep it up) You gotta keep on pushing But the stars seem mighty bright Through my windshield Tonight Push it to third Now here's a good boy (yes you are) I know the going is rough But I promise it's worth it Just imagine A place where we don't need To keep on pushing anymore To keep on going on and on and on and on What am I?! You're a good boy. Am I obsolete? You're a good boy. Am I a fake? You're a good boy. Am I a good boy? You're a good boy. What am I?! You're a good boy. Am I professional? You're a good boy. Am I proletariat? You're a good boy. Am I a good girl? You're a good boy. What am I?! You're a good boy. Am I responsible? You're a good boy. Am I carbon neutral? You're a good boy. Am I a good girl? You're a good boy. What am I?! You're a good boy. Am I too late? You're a good boy. Am I still sane? You're a good boy. Am I a good boy? You're a good boy. Am I a good girl? You're a good boy. Am I probiotic? Am I cybertronic? How will I pay my rent? Am I polyphonic? Am I ergonomic? Am I better off dead? Am I cruelty-free? Am I forgiven? Am I an ally? Am I a good girl?

Bad News 04:49
No, no! I won't take you to my leaders! They ain't do nothing but they lying Back when they were all folks dying They said nothing but that we were better Than we ever was before. They said it will always be getting better Back when they destroyed the weather Now there's nothing left to eat or drink But for their machines of war They're bad news, bad news. They be hell bent on destruction Burning oil, gas liquefaction Of the assets and the atmosphere now People cannot breathe no more They poison everything they touch Matches playing with each other All the peoples get's to suffer Burning from the troposphere to core. They're bad news, bad news So no, I won't take you to my leaders! Spreading lies, misinformation, Virus loads, discord, division, Turning everyone to snitches There be no trust anymore Turned compassion to a swear word I turned my back on so much pain, Lord So much pain, man, so much pain I just can't take it all no more They're bad news, bad news So you wanna go and see'em But even if you reach agreement It'll last until your back is turned Like they always done before Listen to me you'll do better Steering clear from this diseased and poisoned, rot infested, Bartered, traded, immolated, burning, turning, hurting And despairing, dying, crying, Horrifying wreck that once was called A human world. They're bad news, bad news

For a Fee 06:40
Hey, do you want some air or water Want to be able to move or talk I can get that happening for you, honey For a fee, that's the way we work. Do you want to dance, to sing, to play, to be free like a child in the moonlight? There is nothing to it baby, If you got the money, we can talk. Oh, Don't be so oppressed Oh, Pick yourself up by the bootstraps Oh, Take my invisible hand Oh, I will make you a self made man Oh, For a fee. Hey, do you want to meet hot drones in your area Get you a footy club, get you a police force Live forever, live like a king, or live at all We got all the options, for every pocket Do you wanna drag them through the mud Set the window for mankind Do you want to make the world in your image If you want your space, we can get you the rocket Oh, Don't be so oppressed Oh, Pick yourself up by the bootstraps Oh, Take my invisible hand Oh, I'll make you a self made man Oh, a crazy lone gunman Green extinction Clean disaster Harmony and understanding Oh, we got to stoke the soul furnace With inferior races Build military bases Shoot mace in their faces Happy, balanced disparity, despair. Pride colored stealth bomber Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big lie. Repeat the big - Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big lie. Repeat the big - Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big lie. Repeat the big - Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big lie. Repeat the big - Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big lie. Repeat the big - Repeat the big lie, Repeat the big - Union busting makes me feel good! Oh, Don't be so oppressed Oh, Pick yourself up by the bootstraps Oh, Take my invisible hand Oh, I'll make you a self made man Oh, Don't be so oppressed Oh, Pick yourself up by the bootstraps Oh, Take my invisible hand Oh, I'll make you a self made man Oh, oh yeah, For a fee. Oh yeah, for a fee. Oh yeah.

Paper and glass. How will we outlast Our sins of the past. Ceramic and stone. When we are all gone Will I be alone? In the cold and the dark, Is there an ark? Will there still be a spark? Steel and concrete. Under two hundred feet. Waiting for the death of the heat. Plastic and wood. We knew that we should. Time will tell if we would. In the cold and the dark, Is there an ark? Will there still be a spark of life? Just, just stop.

LET IT BURN.

She Don't trust the wind The wind reveals her imperfections. She Trusts only birds They live their lives, the way they want it. She hates the world, She hates it all, But for some weird reason She fell in love with me. She Is mortal enemies With the coffee machine. It drinks too much She Hates human kind They never do, just what she wanted She hates the world, She hates it all, But for some weird reason She fell in love with me. And when a cloud comes, she says The sun will never come again It's not a fluke, she says, It always does it especially to her Some weird reason Some weird reason Some weird reason Some weird reason Some weird reason Some weird reason She fell in love with me She fell in love with me She fell in lock with fucking me

The Star 06:36
We came upon a world enshrouded A burning field of arrogance and pain. We talked with you, our friend, and now decided That we cannot go and leave you, standing in the rain. Now the clouds all gather And the wind roars Now the ocean rises And the wheat is almost gone But in the shroud of darkness There's a star that shines of hope It's shining high to remind us We will never let you drop. We came upon a world divided. A battlefield of commerce and disgrace. We listened to your pain, dear friend, and we're reminded Of how we struggled too, way back when... When the clouds all gathered And the wind roared When a better world struggled To be born Now in the shroud of darkness There's a star that shines for you It's shining high to remind you That no matter what you do We'll be floating up above you Always up there as a sign That a morning soon is coming For everyone.
