    It got too hot and so we overthrew the system
    'Cause there's no place for human existence like right here
    On this bright blue marble orbited by trash
    Man, there's no beating that
    It was no big thing to give up the way of life we had
    Oh ho oh
    My social life is now quite a bit less hectic
    The nightlife and the protests are pretty scarce
    Now I mostly spend the long days walking through the city
    Empty as a tomb
    Sometimes I miss the top of the food chain
    But what a perfect afternoon
    Industry and commerce toppled to their knees
    The gears of progress halted
    The underclass set free
    The super-ego shatters with our ideologies
    The obscene injunction to enjoy life
    Disappears as in a dream
    And as we return to our native state
    To our primal scene
    The temperature, it started dropping
    The ice floes began to freeze
    From time to time we all get a bit restless
    With no one advertising to us constantly
    But the tribe at the former airport
    Some nights has meat and dancing
    If you don't mind gathering and hunting
    We're all still pretty good at eating on the run
    Things it would have been helpful to know before the revolution
    Though I'll admit some degree of resentment
    For the sudden lack of convenience around here
    But there are some visionaries among us developing some products
    To aid us in our struggle to survive
    On this godless rock that refuses to die
