The World is my Ashtray

from The Land of Babaloo​-​Demo Album by Mining for Rain

/

lyrics

Everywhere I look-
Things are getting worse.
People full of anger
And everything seems cursed.
Sewage in the rivers
Smog up in the sky.
Endless brutal violence
Does anyone know why?

Chorus: The world is my ashtray (x2)
And there’s smoke in my eyes!

Everywhere I look
Things are getting bad.
Who should I blame?
Perhaps your mom and dad?
Repugnant evangelism-
Jesus up for sale.
And then there’s captain Ahab-
Hunting the great white whale.

Chorus: The world is my ashtray (x2)
And there’s smoke in my eyes!


Love can conquer all
In this I still believe.
Though I have been blinded
And my heart has been deceived.
People full of sorrow-
The sorrows never cease.
Where the hell is Justice-
And that road that leads to peace?

Chorus: The world is our ashtray (x2)
And there’s smoke in our eyes!
