Slagheaps and nuclear waste
Factories belching poison
Doe eyed girls, with Botox brows
Wonder what the boy's on
Laboratory rats and mice all stare
From floorboards to electric chair
Scientists, with telescopes
Pretending there's something out there
Grime filled alleys, way up North
Scarred by piss and curry
Automatons, in overcoats
Towards tomorrow hurry
Snails at work, tigers in bed
Alcohol and daily bread
Scientists, with shaky hands
Experimenting with your head
Torn and frayed
We're rag dolls in a tidal wave
Born and nailed
Prisoners who don't get bailed
Mourn and wail
Some care
Some hate
The distance to the Sun's so small
Compared to the vastness of it all
We're specks upon a lonely rock
Time flies
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
Machine-agers in choking smog
Grey slate and acid rain
Multinational dinosaurs
With slaughter on the brain
Abattoirs exterminate
Slap something bloody on a plate
Scientists, with Google eyes
Turn us into atomic pies
Torn and frayed
We're rag dolls in a tidal wave
Born and nailed
Prisoners who don't get bailed
Mourn and wail
Some love
Some smile
Some care
Some hate
