Thank the lord we're not long for this world Everything is getting on my nerves And it's all gonna quickly unfurl Thank the lord we're not long for this world There once was a chance we wouldn't screw up But we left it a lot down to luck And the people with power just saw their wealth grow Thank the lord we're not long for this world There's a chance for a new world in space But we're already clogging up that place And the people with power just watch their wealth grow Thank the lord we're not long for this world

I took a photograph of something It doesn't matter what I took a photograph of something Looking at little bits And taking photographs of people's lives A snapshot life I took a photograph, you never noticed I took a photograph Lists are not without consequences I took a photograph of something It doesn't matter what And when the negatives are developed...

The blue devils are well in our midst They're pushing that cart down below You are in that barrow Not that you'd know You're looking at sun but it's really snow Your'e going to hell in a handcart Looking at sun but it's really snow Going to hell in a handcart Forests are burning Oceans are rising Rivers are flooding And you can't breathe the air You're going to hell in a handcart The blue devil is pushing you there Going to hell in a handcart And it looks like you don't really care
