brad roberts of crash test dummies – disposable words lyrics
verse 1
some of us are pink, some are other colors
all are born from gas clumps, call them our mothers
some of are us are brown, and come from different folks
our dna distinct, fueling cosmic hopes
we started long ago, and painting desert caves
building to the skies, digging out our graves
made temples where we, could honor our gods
performing rituals, to better our odds
chorus 1
when the time comes to boldly go
even if the voice is whispering
i hope i’ll be the first to know
i hope it tells me everything
with disposable words and reusable genes
we’ll live our lives beyond our means
verse 2
but now our odds grow slim, the planet torn asunder
our science so advanced, we flirt with cosmic blunder
the gods are not responding, our temples a mere facade
our odds have not changed, our beliefs were a fraud
i thought i saw a falling star, and so i made a wish
but it was just a satellite, and i am just its dish
i wondered if these skies, would be where we embarked
a tired out humanity in a modern noah’s ark
chorus 2
when the time comes to boldly go
even if the voice is whispering
i hope i’ll be the first to know
i hope it tells me everything
with disposable words and reusable genes
we’ll live our lives beyond our means
bridge
thingamajigs toil less, industrial revolution
darwin unraveled a the rest, a beastly evolution
we cast a spell of ones and zeroes
tossed out leaders, welcomed heroes
verse 3
teaspoons in the ocean, dust among the clouds
no cure or magic potion, just a restless hungry crowd
death and resurrection, do they add up to the same
or have we spent our equity, playing some cosmic game?
chorus 3
when the time comes to boldly go
even if the voice is whispering
i hope i’ll be the first to know
i hope it tells me everything
with disposable words and reusable genes
we’ll live our lives beyond our means
refrain
the jig is up, the strings are snipped
we are set free, but without a script
