Open your eyes and light the fluid
Get into it, petrol siphon Low on meals, browning fields Bury Children Urbanization, Scarification Population Exodus There is no Planet B Open your eyes and see Open your eyes and shoot the dingo All this shit goes out the window Multi-factioned, rusting tractors Dying heroes Only way through is colonization Acclimatization Population exodus Monetization, Civilization The operation has begun There is no Planet B Ancient seasons blacked out for ages Dreaming of cake, snowflakes blanket Old deserts, outskirts, disperse Earth is a blank verse, last hearse, dry nurse, oh Open your eyes and see There is no Planet B Sin is our greatest you hear Baby Jesus sheds a tear 02. Mars For The Rich
Red Mars for the rich
I'm just a poor boy Living frugally I see Mars on TV, I see people happy I work fields with Blistered fingers I look starward That world has no place for me Red Mars The czars Live large Red Mars for the rich, rich Mars for the privileged Earth for the poor Marrs terraforming slowly Earth has been deformed Just forget it, you ain't coming here The ticket's too dear I stare sadly into my beer That world has no place for me Red Mars The czars Live large Red Mars for the rich, rich, rich, rich 03. Organ Farmer
Make the incision, careful precision
Blood minestrone Decomposition, new life christened Fatty rolls of brie Organ farmer, organ farmer Delicatessen of our profession Growing muscle meat Bring in the carcass, waken departed Speak our blasphemy Organ farmer, organ farmer Counterfeit hypocrite Runs the mall, runs them all Citadel guards it well Counting coins, counting stem cells Wiretap divinity, human laboratory Kill the squid, cut the tree Arrogant human being Meadow's vast, body parts pulled apart Partly smart, partly art, partly not Part of me wants to breathe eternally Part of me wants to cut out my heart Farm colossal Wake the fossil In the fields of beef 04. Superbug
Superbug coming up
Feels like he'll never stop Shoulda used phages, instead you took ages Superbug gave a shrug and ate all your prescription drugs And never, ever, ever stopped Deadly contagious and inter-generational Never, ever, ever stops And never ever gives a fuck Pony up, join the club Shake my hand, let's run amok Superbug in my blood Superbug made all the disturbing stuff Superbug in my blood Superbug made all the disturbing stuff Superbug coming up H1N1 was a flop Anti-microbial, resistance is futile Superbug is like a truck, penicillin is a duck That's sitting on the road for luck Faceless and ageless, it's simply outrageous Never, ever, ever stops And never ever gives a fuck Unnecessary Anti-B's likely killed humanity Superbug in my blood Superbug made all the disturbing stuff Superbug in my blood Superbug made all the disturbing stuff 05. Venusian 1
Venusian One
Forest desertified Ocean wave amplify Constant tornado sky Black water, no supply Otherworld, surrogate Interstellar our escape Sulfur star liberates Gotta beat the outbreak Oh, we're going to the second planet from the sun Oh, our ship can deliver us from our ruin Death admirer, ground of fire I heard there's a holy yellow sky Just make sure you close your eyes Venusian One Made of junk from the Earth Human waste, how absurd Journey is childbirth Plant a flag, start a church Sharp as ice in the night Cutting space, satellite To a sphere set alight We escaped parasites Oh, we're going to the second planet from the sun Oh, our ship can deliver us from our ruin Floating helium, blimp of freedom Outside air will bring you death Just make sure you hold your breath Venusian One There is one Planet V 06. Perihelion
Space is the place for the human race
Chasing the race for the new place Days on our old place waste Starship's team full of everybody keen Pilot in the twilight is a deep dream Men and machine convene Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Giver of life and the giver of speed Ever we take even her gravity Her glowing beauty is something to see Bigger and brighter she cometh to me Solar mountain comes on the perihelion No rerouting, only counting 'til we're done Shouting sins until we're in the suns Melting humans and everything they bring In a blink, the sun will drink their things Grinning sun has sinners for dinner Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Giver of life and the giver of speed Ever we take even her gravity Her glowing beauty is something to see Bigger and brighter she cometh to me Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion Peri-perihelion 07. Venusian 2
In the lap of the gods
The last one did explode in a blaze all fiery I sit in the cockpit It may be a sinking ship but fortune favors bravery Road trip with me Vitamin V in focus now Venusian Two Fingers getting warm and eyes are turning gold Evil twin is coming in Weathering the storm, I put the birdie down For the sin, I have a grin Road trip with me Vitamin V, I see the ground Venusian Two Venusian Two 08. Self-immolate
I have gone insan-o
I lust for volcano Be with molten lava Give me my nirvana I have no vertigo I lust for tornado Be a leaf upon air Venusian mal de mer Venusian sickness dire, I want to be set on fire Venusian, gather while I Venusian-ly catch on fire Auto-cremate, self-immolate Like a bird in a cage Aerostat habitat To motion, I am slave Give me hell, I want that Venusian sickness, Venusian bilious, Venusian nausea Venusian mal de mer Venusian sickness dire, I want to be set on fire Venusian, gather while I Venusian-ly catch on fire Auto-cremate, self-immolate 09. Hell
God, it's pretty hot down here under surface
Antichrist has tempted me with a purpose Remember where to enter, remember where to enter The door to hell is amber Here I was thinking I'd die I see a thousand flies and wings and tails and spines Nausealess, resoluteness near the entrance Satan points me to the rats' nest Remember where to enter, remember where to enter The door to hell is amber Remember where to enter, the door to hell is amber Fifteen infantry paratroop into the propylene new scene Hell's where they wanna be Infest the rats' nest |
