Materialism instilled from birth
 Financial wealth equates your lifes worth
 Consumer culture and social ills
 The war machine profits as it kills
 Inherent greed of the chosen few
 Bitten off more than they can chew

 [bad word] out of time

 Taken for granted all the things we've known
 Now it's time to reap what we've sewn
 But we've planted the seeds of discontent
 Diplomacy used to circumvent
 Global industry tipping the scales
 Turn back the clocks or disaster prevails

 Coz it takes so much effort to make us pay attention
 Too busy consuming to think of prevention
 Polluting exploiting with reckless abandon
 Human neglect til no one is left standing
