about

The third track, written from three different perspectives.
It gave me three nosebleeds.

lyrics

Just one world, passing us by
waving goodbye as we poison the sky
Just one world, and it's a mess
this is our generations test

This is our generations test
This is our generations test
Just one world, and it's a mess
this is our generations test


sitting in a room, living out a cliche
smoky smell just another green day
try to maintain but my brain functions astray
parts of me's thinking this habits passé
should let it fade away but I reconsider
Wait and see what the day deliver
Don't wanna be chopped liver, prime fuck giver
shiver three times like the blue danube river
Sharp like mercy giver on my better days
better for mixing letters unfettered prime to pave the way
in a world that obsessed with 50 shades of grey
just might bide my time in a viridian daze
Conjure up theories pose queries about the nature
of life while wasting it, we should tasting it's flavours
Even the parts where we wish we had erasers
that in our heads seem to be so soundtracked by "debaser"
gulp it down with a chaser
face the facts and put pen to paper
You might turn out to be a creator
Just cut out the couch potato

You gotta understand that I'm my own man
No peter pan I stand like David Lo Pan
Not tan, but I bring the heat
make you drip sweat sticking my tongue out, sweet
I'm peeping at greatness through jade tinted glasses
gonna be reaping the fakeness through shades of grey *hint hint* iconoclastic
On a fast trip through the rude crude attitudes of the hard dicks
that don;t pass shit, more evil than daleks,
step into my tardis, whip up a solution
stop the heart of darkness causing pollution
Uncover the dark shit thats choking the air
Them put em on a trial that fair
Then we take over! and change the pace
no range rovers all about the urban places
Little kids, with smiles all across their faces
no homophobia, sexism or racists

Nice dream, but face it, it's hard graft
We prefer drinking smoking chilling, having a laugh
We throw in the towel, instead of committing to a craft
Sweat for the wetlands? you've gotta be daft
See, this is why I don't Identify
with other gals and guys, don't know why I try
theres gotta be an easier way to make a point
To initiate discussion without smoking two joints
We can;t keep pushing it back, saying later
cos the worlds problems won't fade into vapour
You don't seem to be much of of a mover or shaker
writing "save the trees" on rainforest paper
oh, you've made a million for worldwide distribution?
heh, cute, that'll stop the pollution
shake up the corrupt institution what a contribution!
sure fire solution! inspire revolution!
