Lyrics
There are limits to growth;
Unchecked progress leads to tons of death;
There are limits to growth;
We can create, but the cost is great.
Nothing is lost, nothing is created
Everything is transformed, but the cost is rarely weighted
To make something, you gotta extract it
They take and take leaving the world devastated
And it’s automated, the end goal being profit
Computers numbers, the words of a prophet
Supply and demand, surplus skyrocket
In the end, who suffers? You guessed it!
“I don’t decide, man, it’s the product
It’s the free market, mate, you can’t obstruct
People choose, it just can’t be corrupt”
Fuck you, the options are made up
The limits to growth
Man-made disaster x8
There are limits to growth
Designed obsolescence, things are made to break
Flexing opulence, this shit is all fake
Consumerism is such a huge mistake
God, we waste so much for fuck's sake
Don't people realize what is at stake?
The ravage done so they can have their steak
They don't care, all they do is fucking take
They have to see the ruin they create
The biodiversity destroyed by their estates
The murders committed by their states
The pain caused by ignorance and hate
Sacrifices must be made, it's not up to debate
The rich and powerful should be afraid
We sharpening our guillotine blades
For too long we have obeyed
Now it's time blood debts be repaid
Man-made disaster x5
