Earth Is a Mess (Quarantine Mix)
A virus on the rise while the "wise" feed us lies
Our selfishness is the true Lord of the Flies
We're bred like dogs made to blindly follow orders
Instead of having morals we've got toilet paper hoarders
So blame it on the Chinese or Trump or the Boogeyman
Are we seriously still doing this, come on, like really, man?
You'd think passing blame will save us, well that's not how
I thought we would have learned to play nice by now
All that trickles down is disappointment
When even basic comfort sees you via appointment
Few swim in dough unfazed by quarantine
The bottom line is money they don't care what you think
Politicizing things never fixes any problems
How about we work together so we can try to solve them
No one can stop you from using your voice
But it'd be a lot nicer if you made a better choice
You cope with life by treating it like a joke
Though I think it's finally time that we make ourselves woke
All your news is fake 'til your livelihood's at stake
And only after that is there action you must take
Some get bloody high just to feel alright
Others avoid the night by painting their fences bright white
How do you even sleep when the shit we're in is deep?
When the world is run by wolves and the common folk are sheep
Raaaaaaaagh
It's all our fault that our lonely planet sucks
It's all because nobody ever gave a fuck
It's all our fault that our lonely planet sucks
It's all because nobody gave a flying fuck
No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess
Until we face our problems, I won't give it a rest
No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess
No matter what you own money can't stop death
No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess
I promise we can save it if we always tried our best
No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess
Doesn't matter who we blame, the point is we're all a mess
Ooh we're all a mess
We're all a mess
Yeah we're all a mess
That's okay
We're all a mess
Yeah we're all a mess
We're all a mess
Our selfishness is the true Lord of the Flies
We're bred like dogs made to blindly follow orders
Instead of having morals we've got toilet paper hoarders
So blame it on the Chinese or Trump or the Boogeyman
Are we seriously still doing this, come on, like really, man?
You'd think passing blame will save us, well that's not how
I thought we would have learned to play nice by now
All that trickles down is disappointment
When even basic comfort sees you via appointment
Few swim in dough unfazed by quarantine
The bottom line is money they don't care what you think
Politicizing things never fixes any problems
How about we work together so we can try to solve them
No one can stop you from using your voice
But it'd be a lot nicer if you made a better choice
You cope with life by treating it like a joke
Though I think it's finally time that we make ourselves woke

It's all our fault that our lonely planet sucks

No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess

No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess

No easy way to say it - Earth is a mess

Ooh we're all a mess
We're all a mess
Yeah we're all a mess
That's okay
We're all a mess
Yeah we're all a mess
We're all a mess
