Lyrics: First Step


Why don’t we compare what’s going on
with a little experiment that has been done
With bacteria, oh some time ago
but it’s still relevant as time will show
‘Cause we’re heading somewhere I don’t wanna go
and it looks like we’re drifting but we don’t go that slow
There is a direction as soon you will see
it’s not a matter of right or disagree


Let’s take the first step into the lab
On a dish made of glass that is shiny, clean and fresh
Now, what you will need is something good to eat
And enough to drink what do you think


No worries, I’ll make sure there is enough food
And really hot chicks so that you can prove
That you’re a real man and not some goof
Go make your move while you’re in the groove
But what about your buddies, what about your mates
Why don’t we make this double triple dates
The more the merrier and plenty of space
And still no shortage of food you’ll have to face


Let’s take the first step into the bed
On pillows that surpass what is fluffy, clean and fresh
Now, what you will need is to proceed
And produce a lot of fries both girls and guys


It is not lack of space that will kill the human race
There’s plenty of room even if our numbers boom
But what about the food - what about it, we’re still good
And there is enough to drink just check that it don’t stink
Sure, the temperature is rising but it’s still not too hot
Nothing we can’t handle or work out on the spot
Then what is the problem, why bring this up
You’re having so much fun in your private petri's club


Let’s take the first step and face the fact
That the dish made of glass is no longer shiny fresh
Now what you need to see is the amount and degree
Of waste produced sure has to be reduced


Yes, your life looks agreeable but the outcome is foreseeable
For let me tell you without further ado
It is your own waste that you will start to taste
And your bed will be a bunk in the middle of your junk
And I can guarantee you I wouldn’t want to be you
When they have to free you of fungus and de-flea you


Let’s take the first step
Let’s take the first step

Let’s take the first step out of this lab
And out of this mess starting shiny, new and fresh
Now, what we will need is somehow to succeed
To use green machines by all our means

And let’s not forget to take the final step
to ensure that the glass stays shiny, clean and fresh
So, what we will need is to take heed
To not repeat our own deceit
