You're the Virus, We're the Cure
We started off,
Our intentions were good.
To run some tests
On planets in your neighbourhood.
We seeded life
In primordial slime.
You fucked it up.
Better luck next time.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
We gave you life
And now we're not so sure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
We hung around,
Keeping the score.
To end Jurassic,
We sent a giant meteor.
Primate lines,
So many to chose
You fucked it up.
Some you win,
Some you lose.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
The air was clean,
The water was pure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
Mankind evolved,
We're so not impressed.
And now we've landed,
We'll clear up your fucking mess.
You invented
Religion and guns.
You fucked it up.
You can't win them all son.
Across the worlds,
You're not that special.
You're pretty dumb,
You're temperamental.
Your whole existence was experimental.
One thing we'll keep...
Heavy metal.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
Abundant species,
Safe and secure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
We gave you life
And now we're not so sure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
Our intentions were good.
To run some tests
On planets in your neighbourhood.
We seeded life
In primordial slime.
You fucked it up.
Better luck next time.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
We gave you life
And now we're not so sure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.

You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
We gave you life
And now we're not so sure.
You've the virus, we're the cure.
