Lyrics
 Oh we got acid rains and climate change and rancid liverwurst

we got tidal waves and bridal rage and solar flares that burst We got big wildfires blown out tires and landing wrong headfirst

Well we just gotta know with all this woe What's gonna get us first? Oh What's gonna get us first? What's gonna get us first? We think we're smart dodging all the darts but one poke the balloon will burst What's gonna get us first?

Oh What's gonna get us first? What's gonna get us first? We think we're free won't be a fee but the piper is reimbursed What's gonna get us first?

Oh we got cigarettes and missing jets Elections that are cursed Kids snorthing Drano™ super volcanoes and folks just shooting first Aliens on the walls nuclear footballs and hemmoroids that burst

Well we just gotta ask with all this trash What's gonna get us first? oh What's gonna get us first? We skirt the graveyards and cheat at cards but the red queen will do her worst What's gonna get us first?

Oh What's gonna get us first? What's gonna get us first? We laught at debts might win one bet but the house always takes the purse What's gonna get us first?

It took billions of years to get us here We climbed up from the muck if we don't make it through we'll bid adieu We're just down on our luck We go back to the sludge with a little nudge We'll just start it over again Maybe next time around We're glory bound We'll make it further then

Oh we got pianos dropping Hearts just stopping and big planet-wise thirst Antibiotic resistence No coexistence Viruses with no cures We walk under ladders Spook puff aders Got Ebola in airports We gotta question with this tension What's gonna get us first?

Oh What's gonna get us first? What's gonna get us first? Danced through the rain with clear disdain But we wont' dodge the big cloudburst What's gonna get us first?

Oh What's gonna get us first? What's gonna get us first? Screw Mr. Death He's out of his death but the truth is just the reverse What's gonna get us first?

What's gonna get us first?
