If we don’t try to save ourselves, we’ll just end up as a small thin geologically odd layer in earth’s history … alien archaeologists in a few million years will see the K-Pg layer that wiped out the dinosaurs and then this thin weird radioactive layer of mismatched minerals and material that lasted for a few hundred years.
And they sent down some astronauts
To study our bones
Through the miles of garbage
Beneath all the junk that we owned
Carbon dating beer cans
Condoms and Twinkie wrappers
We were something beautiful, baby
What the hell happened?
