Hot New Earth (1997)

[Vocal: Leo Littles]

5/2/1997

Visionary art
Culture create
Useful technology
What cannot we make?
Weaving the cloth that keeps us warm
Leaving the land so trashed and worn

The balance of soul
To the roots in the land
To the gothic cathedrals
Where the masses band
The song and dance of the social norm
Is now the slam dunk of the antisocial porn

In a hot new earth
In a cold cold sweat
Hot new earth
Meets a cold cold death
Force times velocity
Will give us power
In a hot new earth
Hot new earth

Overrated human
The master of slaves
Never the spiritual
Just material craves
A culture to integrate that math with the art
Are we ignorant?
Or are we too smart?

(Chorus)

Removal of skin
The raising of the sea
Take away the trees
The means for recovery
Poison pills for a feverish child
Cure the ills
Before it dies

(Chorus)
