Dead Decade

Give it up baby, don't bother turning around
 The tower started shaking, your city burned to the ground
 Some said 'it's our lot' - well, thanks a lot, pass the salt, and shut up
 Babel Babble small talk, another flood and we'll drown
 Dear Mary, your son looked so scary, after hanging uptown
 Lord knows that his dad don't care if, we're double crossed and let down
 Let's leave together
 On holiday to our holocaust
 You'll love the weather
 The heat is up and the hell's got frost
 Sit back, enjoy decay
 This is the dead decade
 Landfills, oil spills - those dolphins ain't laughing now
 Fields of blood, trees are cut -why ask if they make a sound?
 There's Danny in his pit of lions - he knows the zoo's outside
 The whale found no place to hide in - Jonah had an easier ride
 Let's leave together
 On holiday to our holocaust
 You'll love the weather
 You know the heat is up and the world's got lost
 There's nothing left to save
 In a d-d-d-dead decade
 We're living in a dead decade, oh
 Still thinking we will get out safe, so
 All those who say 'don't fear tomorrow'
 They sound so hollow
 We're dancing as our world decays, yeah
 Death marching us in its parade and
 See how our children follow
 in sorrow tomorrow
 Keep playing all your deadly games
 Mom's worried but we're not afraid
 Who knows if we'll be here tomorrow
 But till then just follow
 We're living in a dead decade, Aww
 Still thinking that we have time to play and
 All those who told us weep or follow
 Have managed to destroy tomorrow
