Petrol Dollar Blues

Verse 1

Empty tank

Silver dollar sliding down the drain

Running red

Black sludge bubbling in the desert rain

Fossil fuels

Feeding every plastic fork and frame

Price hikes

Empty bikes

Famine on the shelf

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late

Is it too late

The petrol dollar is falling down

The petrol dollar is falling down

Falling down

Falling down

Verse 2

War machines

Grinding gears for the crude and gold

Bitter debt

Bitter blood and a story told

Broken bank

We bought the lie that we were sold

Sucker punch

Cold lunch

The empire starts to fold

Maybe it's the end

Maybe it's the trend

Maybe it's the plan

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late

Is it too late

The petrol dollar is falling down

The petrol dollar is falling down

Falling down

Falling down

Bridge

Find the spark

Break the grip

Stop the ship

New power

New hour

I pray for the sun

I pray for the light

I pray for one more day

Let the sun keep shining

Let the sun keep shining

One more day

Verse 3

Truth is

The master holds the nozzle to your throat

Drilling deep

While the common people lose the boat

Bankrupt soul

Watching every heavy headline float

Stop the drain

Stop the pain

Cut the cord at last

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late

Is it too late

The petrol dollar is falling down

The petrol dollar is falling down

Falling down

Falling down

Outro

Keep the sun shining

Just one more day

We need control

Before it all slips away

One more day

One more day
