Newest Industry

We been through mass destruction once but once was not enough We said "we want a second chance" and all they say is "tough" A world where science went too far, there's no way to survive Why can't we get this thing straightened out 'cause I wanna stay alive They burned and bombed the east and north and there's no place left to go The Sun Belt's overcrowded so let's annex Mexico The peso's only worth a dime but they've got all that land There's no need for a civil war, we know they'll understand, right? Is that how you like it? Hah, factories left unattended, crumbling to the ground We tried to keep them running but there's no more oil around We used it all to fight a war that neither side could win Hah, well, Vietnam was Little League compared to where we've been Now we live in caves and huts and we don't have pay TV And everyone is signing up for the newest industry Standard oil goes solar power, all try to make a buck I'll sit around, smoke cigarettes and I'll babble, "what the fuck?" That's how I like it Sign up, newest industry The newest industry We'll sign up for the newest industry Yeah, we'll sign up For the newest industry Yeah, we'll sign up Oh, oh, oh --- Newest Industry - Hüsker Dü
