(Brian Goble)
No Wishes, No Prayers, 1982
Pissed Off . . . with Good Reason, 1996
Well it’s that time again, but nothing drastic’s changed
Our days just tick on by without a change
The fat and lazy public would rather watch things die
Than get up from their armchairs where eventually they’re going to die
It’s the way of the human race
To let their empires crash down in their face
Who’s never seen is never clearly felt
The whales slaughtered, seals cry for help
The tragedy of extinction, of slaughter inhumane
Our senses overloaded by all the world’s pain
So everybody hides their heads
It’s the way of the human race
To let their empires crash down in their face
While they read it in the papers
And they wallow in their garbage pit
Well it’s that time again, but nothing drastic’s changed
Our days just tick on by without a change
The fat and lazy public would rather watch things die
Than get up from their armchairs where eventually they’re going to die
Because
It’s the way of the human race
To let their empires crash down in their face
It’s the way of the human race
To let empires crash down in their face
It’s the way of the human race
It’s the way of the human race
It’s the way of the human race
To lay sitting in their armchairs wallowing in their waste
Until you rot
