It said in the paper that 90% of the universe went missing this morning
Tonight I lost 90% of what was left..
They send us up here to get us out of the way
We worry, and they don't like what we say
Seems obvious to us what's right and what is wrong
But it seems that our opinions don't belong

I can remember, back in '22
They changed the law - came knocking on the door
In that same moment, the broadband seemed to go..
Phones all dead. Gone dizzy in the head..

Interlude (Gtr. 2 plays power chords from "orbitting")
=========
Fm Ab Gm F# Fm
Em
Next thing y'know
G Dm
They put us on a transport to the stars
G Am
So we're orbitting the earth together
Bm Dm
And, right now, slightly to the left of Mars
G
It's all so clear
We can see the madness perfectly from here.
