[Verse 1: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]
Living our lives in full profusion
Restraint is no alternative solution
Deforest, produce, consume, and waste
You never ask what is at stake
You never ask what to protect or take
Whitewash the misery of the poor
Everyone else is the evil do
No ambition to be fair
True to the motto: what do I care?
Mountains of stuff
Enough is not enough
[Chorus: Christoph Wieczorek]
Let us destroy the world
It's all useless and old
We can destroy the world
And feed children with gold
[Verse 2: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]
The floor starts to crack bit by bit
Nevermind who pays for it
Deforest, produce, consume
We are affected in every way
We are affected when clouds turn from white to grey
[Bridge: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]
Suddenly you're wide awake
When you see what is at stake
Suddenly you're wide awake
When you see what is at stake
Suddenly you're wide awake
When you see what is at stake
Suddenly you're wide awake
When you see what is at stake, fuck
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Grunewald]
You never ask what is at stake
You never ask what to protect or to take
[Chorus: Christoph Wieczorek]
Let us destroy the world
It's all useless and old
We can destroy the world
And feed children with gold
