Lyrics:
When I was young, the leading scientists
Dropped the population bomb
Shouting, “Soon we all will starve to death!”
Weigh the facts and they were wrong
When I was young, the powers were aligned
The Eastern bloc, the open West
Annihilation was the paradigm
The children cowered ‘neath their desks
The weight of the world crushes our grand designs
The future unfurls and never can be defined
When I was young, they said give peace a chance
And the world will live as one
Torn asunder by intolerance
Our chance for peace has come undone
Race relations, guns, and climate change
The pressing issues we bemoan
All may soon become irrelevant
Swept away by the unknown
The weight of the world crushes our grand designs
The future unfurls and never can be defined
The weight of the world crushes our grand designs
The future unfurls and never will be divined
