There's famine just around the corner
Get ready for the world to starve
Drought in Canada, rain in China
All the wrong kind of weather at the wrong time of year

And what little grain is left
They turn into fuel to keep the cars on the road
So you can starve while you drive to the food queue

Do you like your jelly beans made of Soylent Green?

Would you kill your next door neighbour for a slice of bread?

(I think you would)

We're only one meal away from revolution
From devastation, disease and mutilation
It's way too late to save the earth
O the earth will survive - it's just the humans who will die!

Yes, even all you plutocrats
In your country smiles and your cowboy hats
You know you can't live on water and air
But I don't suppose you really care

And neither do I

I'd be happy to die

O the pundits, the priests and politicians
Well, they now have to make some tough decisions
Now they want us all to know
That the temperature is rising as the hurricanes blow

But they don't give a damn about you
And they don't give a damn about me

They just need to protect the status quo
Where everybody knows where the money goes

But once the scales have been tipped
O the rule book has been ripped up

One meal away from revolution
From devastation, disease and mutilation
It's way too late to save the earth
O the earth will survive - it's just the humans who will die!

Yes, even all you plutocrats
In your country smiles and your cowboy hats
You know you can't live on water and air
But I don't suppose you really care

And neither do I

I'd be happy to die!
