lyrics

Dolly the Sheep has been brought back to life
I could take a robot for a husband or a wife
We can roll out new highways like butter from a knife
Doesn't help us beyond the tipping point

Our economy depends on coal-fired power
Wouldn't dare constrain our tonnage by the hour
Alternative thinkers came down in the last shower
Won't help us beyond the tipping point

Why is it so precious maintaining a party line?
Why is it so hard to eat a little humble pie?

We might be in bed with the USA
We might train a monkey to surf the Milky Way
We might have the weapons to blow a small country away
Won't help us beyond the tipping point

Feeling oddly privileged, I'll get to watch the race go bye
Nothing helps us beyond the tipping point
