Kyoto Now!

It's a matter of prescience No, not the science fiction kind It's all about ignorance and greed and miracles for the blind The media parading Disjointed politics Founded on petrochemical plunder And we're its hostages If you stand to reason You're in the game The rules may be elusive But all pieces are the same And you know if one goes down We all go down as well The balance is precarious As anyone can tell This world's going to Hell Don't allow This mythological hopeful monster to exact its price Kyoto now We can't do nothing and think someone else will make it right You might not think it matters now But what if you were wrong? You might not think there's any wisdom In a fucked up punk rock song But the way it is Can not persist for long A brutal sun is rising On a sick horizon It's in the way We live our lives Exactly like the double edge Of a cold familiar knife And supremacy Weighs heavy on the day It's never really what you own But what you threw away And how much did you pay Don't allow This mythological hopeful monster to exact its price Kyoto now We can't do nothing and think that someone else will make it right In your dream You saw a steady state of bounty for eternity Silent scream But now the wisdom that sustains us is in full retreat Watch out Don't allow This mythological hopeful monster isn't worth the risk Kyoto now We can't have vision for the future if it can't be fixed Alien We need a fresh and new religion to run our lives Hand in hand The arid torpor of inaction will be our demise Oh Kyoto no
