Lighthouse Audio - Irony Lyrics

It's against the law to smack our children
But we can kill them (half a million)
We're coming down on child abuse
But it's no use if they're not human

Our suicide rate is super high
But euthanasia is legalised
Marijuana slows the mind
But if you're sick, well, then that's fine

Will be stay so paralysed?
Will we open up our eyes?

We're shooting rockets up into the atmosphere
But down on the surface we are paralysed by fear
We are overweight, we are addicted to our phones
We are so connected but we've never been so
Alone

Our national birth rate is falling low
We need immigration; insemination
Children are exposed to indecent video
Gay is okay, but they've stolen the rainbow

Our tourist industry is so fantastic
But our coastline is full of plastic
Our mountain glaciers are retreating
We blame the cows for their excreting

Will be stay so paralysed?
Will we open up our eyes?

We're shooting rockets up into the atmosphere
But down on the surface we are paralysed by fear
We are overweight, we are addicted to our phones
We are so connected but we've never been so
Alone

Everything is PC; neo-Marxist policy
Intolerance cannot be tolerated
Everyone's included; if you are inclusive
You must conform or you will be hated

Will be stay so paralysed?
Will we open up our eyes?

Our sporting teams are winning with a smile
We're hiding behind our pixelated profile
We are overweight, we are addicted to our phones
We are so connected but we've never been so
Alone
