about

Elon, Elon, Elon.

lyrics

The biggest rocket you’ve ever seen,
Ready to go, all systems green,
Fire the engines, launch, KABOOM,
And cheers erupt around the room.

We had a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly,
Kinda like dropping your Lego Death Star,
Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly,
Sounds more scientific than simply FUBAR.

Three kinds of lettuce, some crumbled cheese,
Cherry tomatoes, and chickpeas, please.
Rotisserie chicken, a meal that won't fatten,
I turn -- and somebody let the cat in.

A Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly
An unused Greek dressing jar still in my hand.
The stupid cat doesn't even want to eat it,
He just wants to know I know who's in command.

Things fall apart, the center cannot hold,
Like a thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle your toddler tries to fold,
Your alibi in high school when you snuck out to see Endgame,
Hot Pyrex in cold water -- we’ve only ourselves to blame....

The banks and stock market are run by gamblers,
The government by incoherent ramblers.
Bigotry, book banning, too many guns --
Mad Max Fury Road, here we come.

A Rapid unscheduled Disassembly
Of everything we say that we hold dear.
Climate change throwing things out of balance,
The world may survive but we won't be here.

Rapid unscheduled Disassembly,
If slower or planned, we just might get by,
But whitewashing failure is no way to progress,
We can't get ahead when we only deny.
I hope for Rapid unscheduled Disassembly --
I think we should give the next species a try.
