you see the news everyday
the world follows a tragic way
leading to a better tomorrow
without any sorrow
that's what they say
and you have to pay

who wants to know
or to look behind their show
who cares
no one dares

atom bomb wrecks
and no one who checks
the old lady fights to pay her rent
the schoolkid has to defend
against the kicks of the strong
waiting for the final bong

tragedy everywhere
and no two that care
you are losing interest
for you it's just the best
digging in the sand
don't move from where you stand

now it's time to make room
and watching our doom
but who cares
cause no one dares
this has lead much too far
just sit back in your favourite bar

overpopulation and unemployment
hesitation and pretention
no one with an idea
cause everyone is in fear
to lose some of his profit
and for others it's just a habit

many tries were banished
while the small ones just vanished
for eternity humans are perhaps not made
they force themselves to fade
in the dark
no noah's ark

but who cares?
