Been through mass destruction once, but once was not enough
Said we want a second chance, all they say is tough
A world where science went too far, there s no way to survive
Why can t we get this straightened out, cause I want to stay alive
Break 1 (played twice):
They burned and bombed the east and north, and there s no place left to go
The Sunbelt s overcrowded so lets annex Mex - ico
The Peso s only worth a dime, but they got all that land.
No need for a civil war, we know they ll unserstand, right?
Break 1 (played twice):
Break 2 (hold each chord apart from last E and A5 which are strummed):
F# Riff:(intro - played twice)
Factories left unattended, crumblin to the ground
We tried to keep them running, but there s no more oil around.
We used it all to fight a war that neither side could win.
Vietnam was little league compared to where we ve been.
Break 1 (played twice):
Now we live in caves and huts, and we don t have pay TV.
And everyone is signing up for the newest industry.
Standard Oil s gone solar power, all try to make a buck.
I ll sit around, smoke cigarettes and babble "what the ?"
Break 1 (played twice):
That s alright now (after last E)
