The Dodo Songtext / Lyric

I see a white haired man, he's got a suit on and

He's telling people how they're supposed to live

Nobody's listening to the politician

No matter what sage advice he has to give



He's got a clumsy, outdated m.o.

And he's come to a fork in the road

And there is only one direction to go



Among the commuters, dwarfed by the skyscrapers

I watch the countless millions fighting for space

See hateful, petty acts, disjointed images,

And can't believe that I'm one of the same race



We're all just struggling to cope

And we come to a fork in the road

As we watch our foundations erode

There's only one direction to go






It's the way of the dodo

Such a noble destiny

It's the waltz of desperation

Passed along to you and me



The way of the dodo



We're all just struggling to cope

And we come to a fork in the road

As we watch our foundations erode

There's only one direction to go



It's the way of the dodo

It's the gray stuff in your head

It's the pulse of the living

And the voices of the dead



It's the way of the dodo

Such a noble destiny

It's the waltz of desperation

Passed along to you and me



The way of the dodo
