A Barbecue Might Help

I made a big mistake
I read the comments which
Were written underneath the news
Now I know life's a bitch

How low can you go

It's such an irony
A human tragedy
A place meant to be free
Locked in bubbles eternally

Oh no no
We're not as good as our made up self
Oh no no
How is this going to end?
The World Wide Web
Has enforced the great divide
But no no no
Still we think
A barbecue might help

I see the planet burn
And a first world overfed
There's time to make a turn
But we move on instead

How far can we go

A man-made catastrophe
Hurts everyone but us
Devil may care for sure
But it's time to re-discuss

Oh no no
The facts are there but still no one cares
Oh no no
How is this going to end
I'm so impressed
How progress turned into a mess
But no no no
Still you think
Still you think
You think
You really think

Business as usual
And a barbecue might help

Information hits like the tide
Just a big mix what is wrong or right
Can you guess how Jonah felt in the whale
Like him we fucked up - but on a global scale

Oh no no
You don't know shit but you do believe
What suits your needs
How is this going to end
The world wide fate
Lies in everybody's hands
But mine no no
Fate's postponed
Cause my barbecue can't wait
No no
Is there a filter against misery
No no no
This ain't what I deserve
Cheap flights cheap drinks
Cheap shoes and money never stinks
One day we may say
We knew before
But we closed the saving door
