Brave New World (Feat. Liam Neeson And Ricky Wilson)
We're gonna build A whole new world for ourselves Look, they clap eyes on us And we're dead, right? So we gotta make a new life Where they'll never find us You know where? Underground
You should see it down there Hundreds of miles of drains sweet And clean now after the rain Dark, quiet, safe
We can build houses and everything And what's so bad About living underground, eh? It's not been so great living up here If you want my opinion
Take a look around you At the world we've come to know Does it seem to be much more Than a crazy circus show?
But maybe from the madness Something beautiful will grow
In a brave new world With just a handful of men We'll start, we'll start all over again All over again, all over again All over again
We'll build shops And hospitals and barracks Right under their noses Right under their feet Everything we need Banks, prisons and schools
We'll send scouting parties To collect books and stuff And men like you'll teach the kids Not poems and rubbish, science So we can get everything working
We'll build villages and towns and And we'll play each other at cricket Listen, maybe one day we'll capture A Fighting Machine, eh?
Learn how to make 'em ourselves And then wallop Our turn to do some wiping out Whoosh with our Heat Ray, whoosh
And them running and dying Beaten at their own game Man on top again
Now our domination Of the Earth is fading fast And out of the confusion The chance has come at last To build a better future From the ashes of the past
In a brave new world With just a handful of men We'll start all over again
Look, man is born in freedom But he soon becomes a slave In cages of convention From the cradle to the grave The weak fall by the wayside But the strong will be saved
In a brave new world With just a handful of men We'll start all over again I'm not trying to tell you what to be Oh no, oh no, not me But if mankind is to survive The people left alive
They're gonna have To build this world anew And it's going to have To start with me and you, yes
I'm not trying to tell you what to be Oh no, oh no, not me But if mankind is to survive The people left alive
They're gonna have To build this world anew Yes and we will have To be the chosen few
Just think of all the poverty The hatred and the lies And imagine the destruction Of all that you despise Slowly from the ashes The phoenix will arise
In a brave new world With just a handful of men We'll start all over again
Take a look around you At the world you've loved so well And bid the aging empire Of man a last farewell It may not sound like Heaven But at least it isn't Hell
It's a brave new world With just a handful of men We'll start, we'll start all over again All over again, all over again All over again
I've got a plan, can't you just see it? Civilization starting all over again A second chance
We'll even build a railway And tunnel to the coast Go there for our holidays Nothing can stop men like us I've made a start already Come on down here and have a look
In the cellar was a tunnel Scarcely ten yards long That had taken him a week to dig I could have dug that much in a day And I suddenly had my first inkling Of the gulf between his dreams And his powers
It's doing the workin' and the thinkin' That wears a feller out I'm ready for a bit of a rest How about a drink, eh? Nothing but champagne Now I'm the boss
We drank and then he insisted Upon playing cards With our species On the edge of extermination With n
