Collapse Songtext
von Speech Debelle

Imagine there was no more oil and I don′t mean olive
I mean the type of oil BP spillers
The kind of oil they drill until the earths crust fall
The kind they drill the land and the seas for
The kind that got Al-Fayed his habits
The kind that go to war where presidents vanish
The kind that couldn't heat your house when its colder
But no one wanna go back to Ethiopia
But we all couldn′t get there
Cause no cars no trains no planes would be running
No staff no guards and no summit couldn't stop it
No G8 couldn't like as it was happening
No way to get around it only through it
We′d live off potatoes like the Irish famine
It would be dread civil unrest
Cause the ones who couldn′t harvest and wouldn't get fed
Would be strapped like the feds
Trying to protect our patch of cabbage over the garden fence
Parting with our food money would be gold The new world order I suppose
It would begin when the banks start closing
They call that a recession
Cause money is just paper its only representation of oil
So if there is no oil there is no paper if there is no paper
Then I′ll put it like this no Christmas wish list for the kids
No more J to B cause you couldn't get there
No more J to C cause they would take it away
If the people on welfare can′t feed their kids
The government keep making cuts affecting
The working class first they'd be first to get strapped
First to react the uni student protests ain′t got nothing on that
That's anarchy cause everybody I know is an insurgent
If oil run up on employment
They better be sure the toys they are storing in preparation
For this war is suitable for sustaining
The artillery that every ghetto has in a vault in an abundance
They better start running they better start running
Running running running


No matter what they say in the news or the newspapers everyday
Well you better be sure when the anarchy comes something stored away
When it all comes down like the towers and the covers get blown away
Better know how to react if it all collapse

It would happen all because we couldn't sustain our mass consumption
Its peak boy yeah its peak oil
That′s the level of oil at its peak
Means you can′t increase past a point
You see I bet you they start drilling in Jamaica
Imagine they start drilling in Jamaica
But all the drilling mean the earth can't take it
The tectonic plates shift from all the shaking
Are we aware of the risks we are taking
Sucking the earth dry like fellatio
I′m guilty of sin for abusing my carbon
Footprint is bigger than my shoes is
I better start putting some seeds in
Storage but I can't plant anywhere
Cause most of the soil is soiled from
Those chemicals we spraying from the air
Chemtrails seen almost everywhere
Got the worms so high they need the birds to eat the worms can′t fly
There been a random species just died
Pieces of the puzzle of our own crimes
But we won't stop until its all gone
And then we′ll ask what went wrong
But we won't have the telly to tell us what to do
We have to start working together like a human coup
Like original man used to do
Feed nourish wisdom feed nourish wisdom
Feed nourish wisdom you better call some Ray Mears quick son
You better call some Bear Grylls instant
This is a war that no man is safe from
This is a war that no man is safe from
X2
No matter what they say in the news or the newspapers everyday
Well you better be sure when the anarchy comes something stored away
When it all comes down like the towers and the covers get blown away
Better know how to react if it all collapse
