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, “pa** the 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 save, so All those who say “don't fear tomorrow” They sound so hollow We're dancing as our world decays, yeah d**h 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
