Green & Desperate
Lyrics
The world changed one November day
A force of evil, a twist of fate
A force of will from an entitled race
Masked by religion and hypocrisy
Empires rise, empires fall
Some people's view of the the world is small
Sometimes greed rises above it all
And people can't see through the lies
Laughing while you take away
All the progress that's been made
Now day is night and night is day
While you lead us into this dark, old age
You'll lead us into war and debt
People will die without regret
Our human capital you'll bet
To build your wealth, your oligarchy
Power and greed, desperate for fame
Gold-plated world that bares your name
A hubris that knows no shame
And in the end you'll be forgotten
Laughing while you take away
All the progress that's been made
Now day is night and night is day
While you lead us into this dark, old age
Smiling while you walk away
From all the good things that we gave
My friends will go your friends will stay
As you lead them to a great despair
Laughing while you take away
All the progress that's been made
Time to resist and push away
While you lead us into this dark, old age
Smiling while you walk away
From all the good things that we gave
We'll keep New York you get Santa Fe
Because love and kindness always wins
