(words and music by Greg Graffin)



take those potatoes out of your ear

listen to the warnings

verify all your fears

there's a world outside

that's ready to blow

and we're all to blame

when it finally explodes

you gotta listen up

gotta listen to what

they're telling you

gotta listen up and think

about what they're saying to you

they're the modern day catastrophists

they've got practical solutions

(know all the right equations)

they're the self-appointed

righteous pragmatists

and they know 50 ways

to save the world

what makes you think

you can cure our disease?

maybe its just our biology

maybe its time to make room

for another species

this is the 21st Century
