about

Humans try to solve their consumption addiction by shooting garbage to the sun.

lyrics

Bought a little place down by the Garbage Corridor
House was nice, the yard was big, it was all we could afford
Couldn’t see the rubbish. Couldn’t smell it rot
And when we saw that picket fence, we thought we reached the top


Poison, plastic islands rolling up to every shore
Marshlands turned to wastelands by 2034
Pools of precious metals in contaminated parks
Why pile it in corners? Just aim it at the mark!

(Chorus)

Shoot it at the Sun. Shoot it at the Sun
When you don’t know what to do with it, just, shoot it at the Sun
Shoot it at the Sun. Shoot it at the Sun
Ohhh, when you got a problem, just, shoot it at the sun


Carbon fiber cables pulling shit up into space
Momentum kept it moving till it hit the sun right in the face
Machines they got faster. That shit kept piling up
And then I smelled the rubbish even with the windows shut

Another great idea by the brilliant human race
Keep them big ones coming. Never learn from your mistakes
Always need a quick fix. Only thinking about today
Relatively speaking, you can’t just make it go away!

(Chorus 2x)

It was beautiful, that solar flare, that breath of fire
I hid in the basement, like Vonnegut in Dresden
And when I came up nothing but ashes and melted steel.

Oh what a mess we left again! (3x)
