lyrics

Verse 1: Gotta stop putting back less than we take
Well, the good Earth is gonna give out from centuries of rape
All the wealth on Earth ain't gonna buy no place to hide
Well, we're chokin' on our own waste, committing suicide

Chorus: Ooh, there's gonna be some sufferin'
Ooh, there's gonna be some sufferin'

Verse 2: Fish flesh flashes flourescent, contaminated with lead
Gills shinin' like silver, floating belly up dead
Tremblin' oil-soaked feathers saturated with fear
The helpless small instinctive brain don't know it's all downhill from here

Chorus

Bridge: Lifeline's getting cut off by synthetic filth
All gonna live through hell, we're all gonna get killed

Chorus

Verse 3: Lungs struggling in rib cages, blood starting to heat
Brought on by our refuse and the poisons that we eat
Animal extinction, the pain in a child's face
A world killed of by its own death-dealin' waste

Chorus

Pop meets psych freakout. ... more
