new earth

the sunset looked magnificent
cranberries to peaches and tangerines
they say it's just pollution
but let the polar ice caps drift
and drive your hybrid off a cliff
they've found a new solution
pack your bags and say goodbye
we're gonna get another try
on new earth

to say we're reaping what we sow
is so twenty light years ago
to hell with consequences
forget the way we used to feel
we'll build a brave new world of steel
a land of walls and fences
pack your things and say goodnight
we're travelling at the speed of light
to new earth

let's line the streets to point and shoot
a million aerosol can sallute
to new earth
