First there was buzz, then there was a roar
Sucg a big change because now, it's so quiet
The plane is broken down, it's rusting on the ground
And there's no one around to fly it
Telephone used to ring a thousand times a day
Jangled nerves, heated words, keep on makin'hay
Sheep got fleeced, they were feeding a beast
Turned around one day and ate us one and all
The golden goose, was drunk and juiced
But we all followed him to the shopping mall
First there was buzz, then there was a roar
Sucg a big change because now, it's so quiet
The plane is broken down, it's rusting on the ground
And there's no one around who can fly it
Warm on the inside sure knew the secret code
We all played along, hoping for a motherlode
But the mine caved in, with a deafening din
Why didn't superman stop the mighthy crash
Superman's retired, he won't be rehired
He's sittin' in the sun on his pile of cash
Oh, Oh, what happened?
When we turn the lights off
Let our heads hit the pillow
Let the pilot take us
For a ride, For a ride, For a ride, For a ride
Got to burn the village to the ground
To save all the people still hangin' around
There was no were to hide from the rising tide
To one and all we still owe a special debt
You probably don't beleive us, the sadness won't leave us
Our tears stain the leather on the corporate jet
First there was buzz, then there was a roar
Sucg a big change because now, its so quiet
The plane is broken down, its rusting on the ground
And there's no one around who can fly it
