i go up with a couple of friends
to see whats going on
marvin told us such a long time ago
crying for mercy mercy me
any mercy for a mother who has given so much
but now in her worst birth pains
surrounded by corporate midwifes
there is no plan b
the rest of the alphabet is dead
and mars is so far away
elton tells us it ain\'t the kind of place to raise your kids
it\'s cold as hell
as the earth gets hotter
market street becomes filled with menus
people hungry for change
we walk around and feel a vibe
like the buzzing of a hive
lots of angry young bees
with stingers getting sharper
a swarm is coming.
