185 - Don’t Bother

I'd give up if I were you

It's never going to work

The world is out to get us all

It sits there with a smirk

I'd give up if I were you

Everything's so pointless

It's all one big conspiracy

To prevent us from success

I'd give up if I were you

It's all been done before

Any anything we ever achieve

Will all be destroyed in war

I'd give up if I were you

Wait, what's that you say?

You don't care what the planet thinks?

You'll do it anyway?
