the ARROWS - World interrupted

Sorry, please, excuse me
Has anyone else noticed that the world's gone crazy?
I mean, it's bad, but it's a fact
They're cloning babies with animals to see what we can get
If we mess with natural law
Oh, so super smart, but really who is it for?

So, while they're cloning
And sending rockets into space
Millions of children, well, they'll be trafficked, they'll be slaves
And we'll be sipping
Our semi-chilled chardonnay and say
Oh, it's such a shame
Exactly who are we supposed to blame?
But, what do we gain if we gain it all?
Just more and more, till we lose our soul

So, how much more can the soul, can it take
Groaning underneath our selfish ways
After all, after all, it's really that more to save for ourselves
Between all the nothing and all of the world
Between all the love, the loss and the stealth
Everyone needs some kind of help

Yesterday the news said
A pregnant man was giving birth and maybe tomorrow
There'll be no oil for us to burn
But for today, they say they're testing nuclear missiles in case
Well just in case, in case of what?
In case all your fighting doesn't stop?

So, while you're talking and shaking hands and launching your missiles
Somewhere a rich man is popping pills to stay alive
He just lost everything just in an instant
In a flash, just crashed, oh, the markets screamed
Quick sell the house, hurry, mortgage our dreams
And just down the road, a teenage tragedy
And I think I'm pregnant, proudly brought to you by MTV

So, how much more can the soul, can it take
Groaning underneath our selfish ways
After all, after all, it's really that more to save for ourselves
How much more can this soul take
Groaning underneath our selfish ways
After all, after all it's really that more to save for ourselves
Between all the progress and all of the hell
Between all the slums and all the hotels
Everyone needs some kind of help

So, out of the dust, surely dawn will arise?
Out of the ground our hope will ignite
Just out of the night the truth will endure
Calling the end until we all disappear
