They used to build malls like national parks
We'd hop a bus and embark
Escaping on our Noah's ark
From another flood of boredom
The god of the suburbs controlled the game
Every food court was the same
Holiday sales kept us tame
With no reason for a post-mortem
Gonna break the orbit of Planet Easy
Don't need no ad men to appease me
Don't want the promise of a softer landing
Take it all but leave me standing
I was just two when we stepped on the moon
Maybe I was born to soon
Now they sell trips beyond the blue
Mere mortals can't afford them
Gonna break the orbit of Planet Easy
Don't need no ad men to appease me
Don't want the promise of a softer landing
Take it all but leave me standing
I'm not Major Tom or a rocket man
There's not much science I understand
But there's one thing that's clear to see
As I get more, there's less of me
I'm not Major Tom or a rocket man
There's not much science I understand
But there's one thing that's clear to see
As I get more, there's less of me
Gonna break the orbit of Planet Easy
Don't need no ad men to appease me
Don't want the promise of a softer landing
Take it all but leave me standing
Gonna break the orbit of Planet Easy
Don't need no ad-men to appease me
Don't want the promise of a softer landing
Take it all but leave me standing
Yeah Yeah
