welcome to this pale blue dot in our galaxy
where we feel the finality of our own mortality
and we worry about our salary and consumption of calories
while famine and war have caused another fatality

we live in a finite world but our need for growth is infinite
our relationship with money is so damn intimate
we can't slow down we want more oh we're so into it
intimate? it would be a sin to quit

so now the whole planet's in debt we owe quite a tall stack
but it's literally impossible to pay it all back
because money is debt created with interest you listening?
there's actually more money owed than exists in the whole system

that's a pyramid scheme!
not just mean individuals skimming the cream
not just smoke-filled rooms where the
supremely powerful convene
it seems a systemic flaw is the theme to this meme

today's system defines who wins and loses with competition
so losers are created by definition
our leaders are ruled by political ambition
not a single one of them is a trained technician

it would be insane to listen to their claims
I'd rather use the scientific method to arrive at decisions
so pardon my sedition but I stand by my derision
and I fight against this system with a thought for ammunition

it's a train of thought it's a frame of sorts
a campaign where you can't just feign support
the train of thought can't be claimed or bought it's an idea
there's no one you can blame in court.

it's a train of thought it's not a game
or sport it pertains to humane and
sustained support like a chain is
wrought it can be trained and taught to
anyone with a brain let me explain in short

I'm talking about the resource-based economy
the scientific method for social equality
no political borders, no one giving you orders
it's a world worth giving to our sons and daughters

I'm talking about the resource-based economy
the scientific method for social equality
take care of the planet and meet everybody's needs
make the world debt free just live and let be
