Lyrics:
There’s always someone getting payed
to find a new witch for the stake
I hope it’s never you

And mama says it’s getting late
But how a flame can fascinate
and now I’m watching too

As all of these words they keep spitting
are bricks in the walls they’re rebuilding for me and you
and no one asked them to, but they do it like it’s new

Well it’s we, who choose to let them win or lose
The world’s an ugly place so what’s the news?

Here they come again, saying
“We’ve never been better”
“We’ve never been better”
We’ve never been better than who?

MEDCs keep on dreaming
But stir in your sleep at the thought that the Chinese want cars too
‘cause the NICs will cost you a little of your fresh air
A little of your Empire
And here they come again, saying
“We’ve never been better”
“We’ve never been better”
“We’ve never been better” but who are we?

I think I’m moving to Bolivia
Watch the sea swallow the world from a mountain top (x4)
Watch the sea swallow the world from a mountain top
