Modern Day Catastrophists

[Verse 1]
Take those potatoes out of your ears
Listen to the warnings, verify all your fears
There's a world outside that's ready to blow
And we're all to blame when it finally explodes

[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta listen up
Gotta listen to what they're sayin' to you
Gotta listen up
And think about what they're telling you

[Verse 2]
Temperature is rising above the odorous rain
Well maybe it's a light of what we throw away
If we don't reuse what's around and free
Our kids can't throw away their comic book fee

[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta listen up
Gotta think about what I'm tellin' you
Gotta listen up
And think about what I'm sayin' to you

[Chorus]
They're the modern day catastrophists
They've got practical solutions
They're the self-appointed righteous pragmatists
And they know fifty ways to save the world

[Verse 3]
What makes you think you can cure our disease?
Maybe it's just a biology
Maybe it's time to make room for another species
Delete the 21st century

[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta listen up
Gotta think about what they're sayin' to you
Gotta listen up
And think about what they're tellin' you

[Chorus]
They're the modern day catastrophists
They know all the right equations
They're the self-appointed righteous pragmatists
And you too can be one of the few to save the world

[Pre-Chorus]
But you gotta listen up
And think about what they're tellin' you
Gotta listen up
And do exactly what they tell you to

[Outro]
They're the modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
Modern day catastrophists
