lyrics

For every step forward, we’re taking two steps back.
Even a blind man can see, the future’s looking black.
It seems that we’ll try anything, to ease a passing pain,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

Each technological solution brings another kind of pollution,
Ignored for some fat-cat’s commercial gain
Each unintended consequence makes exponentially less sense,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

For every step forward, we’re taking two steps back.
Even a blind man can see, the future’s looking black.
It seems that we’ll try anything, to ease a passing pain,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

If life is a miracle, that should be inspirational,
And not the first thing that we ignore.
Science or god or just plain luck or something grown from cosmic muck,
Soon we might not be here any-more.

For every step forward, we’re taking two steps back.
Even a blind man can see, the future’s looking black.
It seems that we’ll try anything, to ease a passing pain,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

The land could soon be desert, with neither bird nor bee,
We’re poisoning all the creatures in the sea.
They say the earth can heal itself, but that might leave us on the shelf,
In the back catalogue of history.

For every step forward, we’re taking two steps back.
Even a blind man can see, the future’s looking black.
It seems that we’ll try anything, to ease a passing pain,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

For every step forward, we’re taking two steps back.
Even a blind man can see, the future’s looking black.
It seems that we’ll try anything, to ease a passing pain,
let’s hope we don’t try to stop the rain.

Wobble & Wheeze England, UK

A potentially overweight Ironman competitor and an endlessly wheezing whooping cough victim - who share in common the fact that they are both always, unquestionably (and completely) correct in all their opinions and assertions. They have almost learnt the rules of chess and play and sing unstoppably in the early hours whilst their long-suffering wives and children sleep. ... more
