We're on our way to hell in a handcart

lyrics

We’re on our way, yes on our way to break our planet’s heart
We’re on our way, yes on our way to hell in a hand cart

Why are we humans such a terrifying bunch?
A Friday species made when God was out to lunch?
With our opposable thumbs and a bit fat brain
You think we wouldn’t make the same mistakes again
We’re on our way, yes on our way as Brexshit breaks apart
We’re on our way, yes on our way now Trump has made a start

Manipulated men and women, they do dreadful things
But proper evil people help them reach their wicked ends
And then they take their refuge behind lying twisted words
In this post-truth world it seems that truth is for the birds
We’re on our way, on our way, we’re almost on the brink
We’re on our way, on our way, it’s closer than you think

The right wing media they are playing to our fears
They know how it works; they’ve been doing it for years
Immigrants and unemployed we are told to hate
But bankers and the warmongers determine our fate.
We’re on our way, on our way, no way that we can last
We’re on our way, on our way, our future is our past

I’m in a facebook bubble where my friends all think the same
It’s a constant struggle to stand outside the frame
I had planned to bury my head in the sand
But on the other hand, maybe I should make a stand?
We’re on our way, yes on our way to break our planet’s heart
We’re on our way, yes on our way to hell in a hand cart
We’re on our way, yes on our way to smash our planet’s heart
We’re on our way, yes on our way to hell in a hand cart
