Huge tailspinâ??is the world gonna win?
Is the nation gonna open up and let us in?
Hard luck! Your policies suckâ??
Your rhetoric will save your face, but not your skin

This timeâ??it's hard to define
So watch the leaves turn brown for the last time
Too late! You've sealed our fateâ??
No returns, no emergency debate... but wait!

I hate unhappy endingsâ??and there doesn't have to be one!

Tailspinâ??your hair's getting thin
****
****
Your rhetoric will save your face, but not your council estates

Geeâ??life is cheap!
The forests pine and the willows weep
Checkmate! You've sealed our fateâ??
The world is way past its sell-by date

Tailspinâ??is the world gonna win?
Tailspin's on the outside looking in
Tailspin, I repent my sins
But when I get to heaven will you let me in?
Tailspin, save our kin, save our skin...

The message we are sending is a very real one
The world we are defending could be a very green one
We hate unhappy endingsâ??and
THERE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ONE!
