What Do We Do Now Lyrics

One gigantic beached whale Desiccates on the neighbor’s curb Guess they threw her away - Could’ve waited ’til garbage day What do we do now - If only we were Inuit What do we do now You can bet the HOA will hear about this Inconveniences abound - The world is our oyster And we can shuck off all we want And oh, how we want to want An abandoned high-rise - Toppled over in the dead of night Now it rests horizontal - On a low income neighborhood What do we do now Could it be repurposed What do we do now Maybe field some offers for a dollar store If comedy is tragedy - It’s funny to think of The billions of people in need While we put up our feet What do we do now - Light a match to this world What do we do now If someone could dismantle This kleptocracy The checks and balances are off; The checks were elastic Imbalances drafted the map We see-sawed with fat cats What do we do now Light a match to this world Dismantle me, oh god, oh please
