[Verse 1]
How can you call
Yourself a woman
You want no child
Think of what you're doin'
What happens when you're old?
Who'll get you through it?
It's unnatural
Thanks, that's where I lose it

[Verse 2]
It's not a reason to bring in a life
Ain't birthin' a servant who's indebted to me and mine
What if they end up being sick themselves
I guess your plan backfired better hire it out
I'm choosy
About the odds that my baby will thrive
Will there be ways for them to find a good meaningful "why"?
Or will they be victim to a system hell?
With their planet burnin' and their pockets null

[Verse 3]
Why do you think you're good
Stickin' your nose in where you shouldn't
Well do you know where we're headin' for
You think it's illusion or an intrusion
Maybe the outcome can't be helped
'Cause doin' our part just doesn't quell
Tous les besoins industriels
If it's too late for us
Is it right to make more of us?
[Chorus]
How do I sit still while the planet is dyin'
The bees are dead
The big boss is up in his tower
My face is red
Yellin' but there's soundproof glass around him
He's countin' all the mountains of money around him
How would you feel if you got cheated out of growin' up
You're born into a dying world
Its time is up
This isn't just some overdone fantasy problem
Quit counting all the mountains of money around you
How do I sit still while the planet is dyin'
The bees are dead
The big boss is up in his tower
My face is red
Yellin' but there's soundproof glass around him
He's countin' all the mountains of money around him
How would you feel if you got cheated out of growin' up
You're born into a dying world
Its time is up
This isn't just some overdone fantasy problem
Quit counting all the mountains of money around you

[Bridge]
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Oh, oh, ayy)
[Chorus]
How do I sit still while the planet is dyin'
The bees are dead
The big boss is up in his tower
My face is red
Yellin' but there's soundproof glass around him
He's countin' all the mountains of money around him
How would you feel if you got cheated out of growin' up
You're born into a dying world
Its time is up
This isn't just some overdone fantasy problem
Quit counting all the mountains of money around you

[Outro]
Can I protect someone who ain't born yet?
Can I protect someone who ain't born yet?
