Sixth Extinction

The last five times you scraped through
Right place, right time, convenient bodyplan
A bit of luck with the winning streak stretch

It doesn't have to be this way, it's not yet too late
We could choose to change, if we could choose to change
Don't have to throw this all away, it's not yet too late
We've not yet completed
The 6th extinction

Pat on the back, well done your alive
Let's have prizes for all the survivors
Almost everything that's lived has died, but you're still here
Some runners up are stuffed in a glass case
Others burn and rise through the chimney stacks
Delayed attack, boiling the survivors
Petrified consolation prize

Five times before you've come close to the edge
On the cliff sat watching the world burn
Gold star for making it so far
Five times before you've had the benefit but not been the cause
You've been the witness, then seen your line explode
But this time there's blood on your paws
