Taken by their elegant statements Duped by our own confidence we’d win Our empire walks the path of its demise
The outer reaches of boundless greed Come on out, hero, out of the CRT Earth’s an oopart, a 10 billion-year dream
If we started now, we’d be just in time But someone please listen, I just, I wanna live, that’s it
The young man flies through downtown Computers, fluorescent lights, 1 AM They’re paranoid, not listening
If we started now, we’d be just in time But someone please listen, I just, I wanna live
Tick-tock, tick-tock, the clock marches on Will we run away to that planet?
Tick-tock, tick-tock, the clock marches on Will we run away to that planet? Tick-tock, tick-tock, it marches on Will we throw away this planet?
Surrounded by all these discs I’ve recorded the very best moments My empire, a less than 100-year dream
It’s all been fixed from the very beginning But someone please listen, right now, I can see it
Tick-tock, tick-tock, the future draws near Will we run away to that planet?
