1, 2, 3, 8 billion

How do you know there’s going to be a World War Three?
The answer to the thought in question
Is really quite an easy read.
Because there was a one and a two,
There will be a three,
Why wouldn’t there be?

How do you know there’s going to be a pandemic?
The answer to the thought in question
Is really quite academic.
Because that’s what happens when
There are 8 billion people on the planet,
It’s academic

Pandemic, pestilence, war, famine, dying sick,
It’s academic

How do you know there’s going to be a raging earth?
The answer to the thought in question
Is really all about what comes first.
Comet strikes the polar ice
Or the super volcano explodes beneath?
Why do we worry?

How do you know we’re being led to the slaughter?
The answer to the thought in question
Is really all about power.
Because that’s what the powerful do
In order to save their own skins,
They know the where and the when,
The where and the when

Pandemic, pestilence, war, famine, dying sick,
It’s academic
