(R. Rice)
Technology is worth the prices that we pay
And we might lose a species or two along the way
If we can't eat em ride em pet em
Use em or hunt them down for sport
There ain't no cause to keep them
There's an awful lot of wood
Out there that no one ever sees
Yeah we can save the forest
But do we need so many trees
Coz we can cut em haul em sell em
N make some greenbacks
While the environmentalists are sleeping
And when it's all gone
Don't worry we can find another planet
Strong industry keeps the economy running well
And naturally there are certain waste products expelled
If we can't bury it fry it hide it
Deny it or shoot it into space
We could always dump it in the ocean
And when it's all gone
Don't worry we can find another planet
It's a damn good thing that our rockets
Can make it to the moon
Coz the way this worm is turning
We're gonna need those suckers soon
But first we need bombers warheads
Missiles subs and satellites
I think we just ran out of money
And when it's all gone
Don't worry we can find another planet
When it's all gone
It's all gone
