[Verse 1] I'm sick of hearing how we upset the balance And the world would be fine in our absence That's such a negative vision So let me show you how to flip it [Verse 2] If it was really like that Life wouldn't almost have died five times Before we arrived, no, life's goal is suicide And we're the only ones who can save it [Verse 3] How's that for positive? It's possible, but the proof gets weird though, so here we go Every organism fucks and dies morе than they need to Well beyond what thе planet can support [Verse 4] They make poison out of closed systems And they kill most of their brothers 'cause of competition Listen, can you hear the feedback loop? (listen, listen, listen) It's getting stronger, that's how most in nature react too [Verse 5] Winners over-succeed, drown in their own waste And get replaced by new ones who can stand the taste 'Cause we all eat something's shit We just also learned to gas a car with it. Yeah! [Chorus] Let's go do something dumb today See what we can break I know that we'll get out of it I'm positive Let's go do something dumb today See what we can break I know that we'll get out of it I'm positive [Verse 6] Snowball Earths have happened twice That's where the whole world's frozen ice Greenhouse gasses, mass extinctions All of these were caused by life, right? [Verse 7] But we're not automatons, we understand wrong And we can see it coming So while microbes and plankton are dumb and don't plan Then I'm sure we can come up with something [Verse 8] Something will save us, it won't be our natures At least not our gut feelings and base behaviours But we can be saviours, buy some time For every single other kind of life [Verse 9] Currently living, stop them from doing too well Taking things over, choking themselves to death If life wants to die, we can realise that And try to fight back. Yep! [Chorus] Let's go do something dumb today See what we can break I know that we'll get out of it I'm positive Let's go do something dumb today See what we can break I know that we'll get out of it I'm positive [Outro] Na na na na na na na na na na Na na na na na na na na na na
