What Do You Think About Western Civilization

Wave goodbye to yourself

And wave goodbye to your friends

This is the end of the world

What do you think about Western Civilization?

I fear Ghandi said it best:

"It would be a good idea."

Highly advanced in technology

Not so much evolutionarily

Shotguns replace the games which we came from

Machine guns are the new sticks and stones

Peaceful

Conflict resolution

Save it for another day, love

Today we all die

Until no one is left

Or until the Calendar reads:

Wave goodbye to your friends

This is the end of the world

I think that I would like to be buried on a beautiful hilltop

With a view of green valley

To breathe in the view of the glorious day

To spy fallen stars as they criss-cross the sky

The moonlight revealing the peace that alludes us

All of our years on this earth

And the one thing I've been searching for...

Yeah, the one thing I've been fighting for...

Peaceful

Conflict resolution

Save it for another day, love

Today we all die

Until no one is left

Or until the Calendar reads:

Wave goodbye to yourself

This is the end of the world

And I can list them like a cliche in a 60s folk song

Bring me your sick and your poor and your huddled masses yearning, yeah

But today instead of handing out invitations

Maybe liberty drops holy things on other nations

Capitalist hogs feeding from the trough

When the pig get too fat

Then the pig's time is up

Peaceful

Conflict resolution

Save it for another day, love

Today we all die

Until no one is left

Or until the Calendar reads:

Wave goodbye to friends

This is the end of the world
