Modern Man
Greg Graffin
I've got nothing to say,
I've got nothing to do,
All of my neurons are functioning smoothly
Yet still I'm a cyborg just like you,
I'm one big myoma that thinks,
My planet supports only me,
I've got this one big problem:
Will I live forever?
I've got just a short time to see,
Modern man, evolutionary betrayer,
Modern man, ecosystem destroyer,
Modern man, destroy yourself in shame,
Modern man, pathetic example of
Earth's organic heritage
When I look back and think,
When I ponder and ask "why?",
I see my ancestors spend with careless abandon,
Assuming eternal supply, modern man....
Just a sample of carbon-based wastage,
Just a fucking tragic epic of you and I
