Lyrics


2010

Eleven billion people
By the year 2010
We'll need another planet
To live on
Overcrowded overtaxed
with the sun against our backs
We've stretched this haven out Over the limit

Chorus
Hee ya, hee ya yo........

VERSE 2
Groundhog
Look hard for your shadow
Amongst this mangled mess
We call our Earth
You've got no place to go
We've got condos don't you know
And highways to it all
We've used all that's living
For food for wear or even for the sport
We've bungled up the greatest chain of being
We've always manufactured
All we've sought

Chorus---Hee ya, hee ya yo.......

VERSE 3
Eleven billion people
By the year 2010
We'll fight amongst each other For each breath
They're still talking
Don't you know
About that Wade and Roe
Do they not see
There's nothing left to get

Repeat Chorus
