The Bees are Dying

[Interlude 1]
"If we go back to the 1940s
Uh, 1950, we had about
Six million colonies of bees in the United States
We've lost, uh
In the past six years
We've lost somewhere between four-and-a-half-million
And twelve-million colonies."

[Verse 1: Vents]
Look, look, look, the bees are dying
The people are multiplying
The sharks and the fish in the ocean crying
Hope is dying, God already dead
We don't believe in shit, but the bread
I'm sick in the head with something
Gotta be something, everybody got a dysfunction
And they got a drug to cure ya
Beef with your partner, call the lawyer
Do what you're told, or they might destroy ya
Fuck the door, yeah, Vents smoke boom in the foyer
The bees are dead, the seas are red
The people fled (Come on) the evil there
GMO, what keep the people fed
Only reason pizza's kept, nuclear thread
The bees? Dying, seas? Drying
Trees? Frying, keep on lying

[Scratches: ADFU]
They dead! "Bzzz bzzz, my shit is fly, you can ask anyone"
"Killing fields need blood to graze the cash cow"
"So save your breath, tie your boots up, and bang with the rest
'Cause in reality" "The man's got a God complex"
They dead! "Bzzz bzzz, my shit is fly, you can ask anyone"
"Streets too loud to ever hear freedom ring"
"So save your breath, tie your boots up, and bang with the rest
'Cause in reality" "The man's got a God complex"
They dead!

[Interlude 2: George Bush]
"One of the problems, not specifically on this issue
Just in general, that... uh, that, um...
Uh, let's put it this way:
Money trumps, um
Peace, sometimes
In other words, commercial interests are very powerful interests."

[Verse 2: Vents]
Look
Fifty-five in December, hotter than a borderline's temper
Three percent growth is the only agenda
The water's hot, we got legal tender
Even the hippies said, "We surrender"
Please remember, the world been hostile
Dig up the dead, that's how we burn fossil
Fuel, few rule, the rest are silent
Ice collapsing, ocean's rising
Market's crashing, serious crisis
Prices falling like Syrian pilots
The private sector, financial giants
Boko Haram Nigerian pirates
Degenerates gambling with your retirement
Random weather, irregular climate
Terrorists planning, terrible violent
Acts, plenty folks with an axe to grindeth

[Scratches (Extended): ADFU]

They dead!

[Interlude 3: James Hetfield, Joe Rogan]
"There's lots of uh, you know, orange almonds
All kinds of stuff, 'specially here in California
In the centre of California, all that farming
If there's no bees, there's no fruit."
"Yeah, what a bizarre, sort of symbiotic
Relationship that we have with one weird insect."
"Mhm"
