Matt Deal - Our Front Porch

When the polar ice caps melt
Will we all go somewhere else
Some newfangled afterlife or Mars
Well, I'd be willing to guess
When we've made our final mess
We'll try to drive to salvation in our cars
We're just cooking in the sun
Until the planet's done
Who can say what will be left for our kids
And I'd be willing to bet
Our one and only regret
Is not holding out for a higher bid

And all the sweetest things
Will all come tumbling
When all our best laid plans
Have run their course
And just like you and I
The whole world's gonna die
And you and I can watch it
From our front porch

Well the trees will all burn down
There'll be no grass on the ground
But as long as something good is on TV
We'll just let the whole world melt
Blame it all on someone else
But it sucks my kid may never learn to ski
Ninety degrees by dawn
No more snowmen on the lawn
While there's time you might wanna go out and see
All the sweet, beautiful things
In the meantime I'm thinking
About finally trading in my SUV

And all the sweetest things
Will all come tumbling
When all our best laid plans
Have run their course
And just like you and I
The whole world's gonna die
And you and I can watch it
From our front porch

And all the sweetest things
Will all come tumbling
When all our best laid plans
Have run their course
And just like you and I
The whole world's gonna die
And you and I can watch it
From our front porch, porch, porch
From our front porch, porch, porch
From our front porch, porch, porch
From our front porch, porch, porch
From our front porch
