Tick
Tick
Tick
Tick
It's eighty-five seconds to midnight
I wonder what the news says about our plight
A one hundred fifty percent rise in carbon dioxide
That's a multi-species genocide
And a man married an AI bride
At least that's better than AI telling a kid to commit suicide
CEO's sacrifice their morality in attempts to gain immortality
Politicians have no regard for legality
And just caused another fatality
Right-handed chirality
Fuck, is this really our reality?
I was late last time, but I ain't missin' a beat this time
This is your warning sign
The tumors in the $Y$TEM$ run deep
And they are not benign
They are seen in the epithelium
But have a bewildering breadth at Breslow depth
Maybe a pathologist can find a cure
Before raw milk makes more hit the floor
I mean WHO would've thought that would make bodies drop?
Ohhhhh
The Golden Dome says shalom
Don't you feel safe leaving home?
It's eighty-five
Seconds to midnight
The whole world is falling apart
But you're told to just clock in and clock out
Like it's not eighty-five seconds to midnight
Wouldn't you like to wine and dine with the plutocrats?
It doesn't matter if you're a Republican or a Democrat
All you gotta do is sacrifice your spine
And cozy up to an autocrat
Just remember to put profits over planet
And you'll do fine as a fat cat
It's us vs them in a zero-sum game
Who knew fossil fuels could gaslight whole nations?
Ohhhhh
The Golden Dome says shalom
Don't you feel safe leaving home?
It's eighty-five
Seconds to midnight
The whole world is falling apart
But you're told to just clock in and clock out
Like it's not eighty-five seconds to midnight
Misinformation can harm international relations
As well as military operations
Denuclearization
Should be the aim of all nations
But leaders are asleep at their stations
Or out on vacation
I say no taxation without representation
Now's not the time to be craven
We have to be brazen
And demand de-escalation
Lest we desire our own annihilation!
It's eighty-five seconds to midnight!
