I've seen the fields turn to jungles of concrete While we debate How the hell we wound up here And I've been reassured by the media We done well, but we fucked up Look to the sky for our imaginary friend Live in a trance We've got money to spend and ride trends Ashes to ashes, beginnings to ends ♪ I've seen the hills turn to dust and glitzy malls Well, dynamite is stronger than a human wall And karma is a real bitch you will soon know The ground on which you stand Was built on blood and woes Give them a hopeful movie like Slumdog Millionaire Half of us are crazy rich and the others Well, they're just slums and dogs with no dime to spare, oh ♪ Lines drawn and categorised The least a fool can do is stay organized Stripped naked and you had your tears run dry Oh mother, mother, are you out there?
