If there is only so much stuff
Then there can never be enough
And this is why we're all so rough
You can't survive if you're not tough

We scratch and scrape and strike and steal
Do anything for our next meal
We don't care if we **** each other
Fighting brother versus brother

There is only so much here
Crushed beneath our greed and fear
Humanity becomes garbled
War ants swarming on a marble

When we have trampled all our grace
There is always more in space
Mountains and oceans and dunes
Diamonds as big as the Moon

Wonders and riches untold
Moons of silver, stars of gold
All the elements on Earth
Strewn throughout the Universe

There's so much space, there's so much stuff
The journey will be very rough
But if we're clever, if we're tough
One day we might just have enough
