[Dan Bull - Thistopia lyrics]
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
And I'm sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs
When man's a virus with shoes
A violent abuser of the planet he resides on
And relies on it too
I want to do something to change it
But, I'm afraid it's inside us
Entwined in our nature
You and I should face it
- the primary trait that
Unites the races is the way we
Use nature and rape it
I'm trying to find pride in my nation
But, I'll die waiting for higher civilisation
Sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs when
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
And I'm sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs - listen
The class system of a past Britain
That still runs fast and thick through
The innards of every last citizen
If you're from Pakistan, black-skinned
Or just act different
You'll be asked questions and blacklisted
The fact is we're attached umbilically
To a fetid capitalist trap full of misery
But that isn't what gets me
The ignorant hegemony
But the fact that we're happy to live with it
The disaffected youth are in
Effect living proof
That respect is reduced to a reckless abuse
Of the ends where they grew through
The stem to the roots
They will step on your shoes
Then expect you to move
Flipping heck, next thing they'll do's
Have you hanging in a hood
Neck through a noose
So whether you accept or you're
Scared of the truth
Say your prayers cos we're due
For a desolate future
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
Over the years we're going to burn
And I'm sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs
When man's a virus with shoes
A violent abuser of the planet he resides on
And relies on it too
I want to do something to change it
But, I'm afraid it's inside us
Entwined in our nature
You and I should face it
- the primary trait that
Unites the races is the way we
Use nature and rape it
I'm trying to find pride in my nation
But, I'll die waiting for higher civilisation
Sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs when
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
And I'm sorry for making you scared
But, it's a sorry state of affairs - listen
The class system of a past Britain
That still runs fast and thick through
The innards of every last citizen
If you're from Pakistan, black-skinned

Over the years we're going to burn
The dystopia gets slowly worse
Over the years we're going to burn
