Lyrics Kyoto Now! - Bad Religion

It's a matter of prescience
No not the science fiction kind
It's all about ignorance
And greed and miracles
For the blind
The media parading,
Disjointed politics
Founded on petrochemical plunder
And we're its hostages
If you stand to reason, you're in the game
The rules may be elusive but our pieces are the same
And you know if one goes down, we all go down as well
The balance is precarious as anyone can tell
The world's going to hell
Don't allow this mythologic hopeful monster to exact its price
Kyoto now!
We can't do nothing and think someone else will make it right.
You might not think it matters now, but what if you are wrong
You might not think there's any wisdom in a fucked up punk rock song
But the way it is cannot persist for long
A brutal sun is rising on our sick horizon
It's in the way we live our lives
Exactly like the double edge of a cold familiar knife
And supremacy it weighs heavy on the day
It's never really what you own
But what you threw away, and how much did you pay
Don't allow this mythologic hopeful monster to exact its price
Kyoto now!
We can't do nothing and think someone else will make it right.
In your dreams you saw a steady state a bounty for eternity
Silent scream but now the wisdom that sustains us
Is in full retreat
Don't allow this mythologic hopeful monster isn't worth the risk
Kyoto now!
We can't have vision for the future if it can't be fixed
Alien
We need a fresh and new religion to run our lives
Hand in hand
The arid torpor of inaction will be our demise
ohhhohh Kyoto now
