Modern Day Catastrophists

[Verse 1] Take those potatoes out of your ears 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 [Pre-Chorus] You gotta listen up Gotta listen to what they're saying to you Gotta listen up And think about what they're telling you [Verse 2] Temperature is rising above the odorous rain Well maybe it's a light of what we throw away If we don't reuse what's around and free My kids can't throw away their comic book fee [Chorus] You gotta listen up Gotta think about what I'm telling you Gotta listen up And think about what I'm saying to you They're the modern day catastrophists They've got practical solutions They're the self-appointed righteous pragmatists And they know fifty ways to save the world [Verse 3] What makes you think you can cure our disease? Maybe it's just a biology Maybe it's time to make room for another species Delete the 21st century [Chorus] You gotta listen up Gotta think about what they're saying to you Gotta listen up And think about what they're telling you They're the modern day catastrophists They know all the right equations They're the self-appointed righteous pragmatists And you too can be one of the few to save the world But you gotta listen up And think about what they're telling you Gotta listen up And do exactly what they tell you to They're the modern day catastrophists
