about

Written & arranged by Phil Dean

lyrics

I used to wake up with a smile on my face
Fresh from a dream I was floating in space
And the Earth from above was a beautiful jewel
In the bright golden crown of the Sun, gleaming blue
Now I wake up with no smile just a frown
I’m no longer sleeping it feels like I’m coming down

Everywhere greed and intolerance breed
To the sound of the media drums planting seeds
To grow hatred of somebody you’ll never meet
To raise cash for a war or to hide their deceit
From a gullible public that don’t give a shit
We’ve been taught not to care while they’re making it rich of us all

And welcome to the modern world
Yeah, welcome to the real world
Plug yourself in
Let the destruction begin
C’mon join all the fun

Try not to think of the animals face
Of the pain it went through to end up on your plate
And don’t spare a though for this place you call home
As we tear down the trees strip it back to the bone
As we drown in poisons as fast as we can
So there’s nothing else left but the law of man

And welcome to the modern world
Yeah, welcome to the real world
You won’t need your heart
Leave it right at the start
Or you’ll miss all the fun
