lyrics

I was scared because I'd only just got
Crawling out of the primordial ooze
It was easier before when I had not
Been given either option to choose

Give up leaving all the wonderful times
I'd slithered and had had submerged
Beneath the slime

And forever choose to leave these lives
But I never decided between
Fur or feathers or gills

"I know the feeling"
She said, as she placed her paw on my webbed fin sighing:
"But it's this, or to be dead
And there's no point trying to get out of dying
So instead - let's get on while we're able.
We know that literally everything is unsustainable

From the swamps to the trees
To the dust and the rust from the fast-food table"

It's just a mass extinction event that
Another mass extinction event
Just a mass extinction event
Another mass extinction event

When it happens I'll be lonely
But I know that you will too

And if there's only one way it's all going
Then I'll go there with you

To the event

Another mass extinction event
