The Promise of Plastic
At first it seemed a miracle made
A rival to imperial ways
The monsters and the mineral hearts
But change was not benevolent grace
They'll lay another village to waste
They'll break you in the visible dark
What did you think would happen
When the well ran dry?
The 20th century would set things right?
Like form and fashion over life
The promise of plastic was a lie each time
The love and luxury it buys
The promise of plastic was a lie each time
What did you think would happen
When the well ran dry?
The 20th century would set things right?
The levee will break
Before a drop falls from the sky
Sit back and watch it play out in real time
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
A rival to imperial ways
The monsters and the mineral hearts
But change was not benevolent grace
They'll lay another village to waste
They'll break you in the visible dark
What did you think would happen
When the well ran dry?
The 20th century would set things right?
Like form and fashion over life
The promise of plastic was a lie each time
The love and luxury it buys
The promise of plastic was a lie each time
What did you think would happen
When the well ran dry?
The 20th century would set things right?
The levee will break
Before a drop falls from the sky
Sit back and watch it play out in real time
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
Yeah
What a surprise
The promise of plastic was a lie
And every modern prophet beside
Has come to nothing
