The streets of the future littered with remains
  Of both the fools and the so called brains
  The whole prediction is enough to kill
  But only God knows if it won't or it will
  Nobody knows why we fell so flat
  Some silly creature said we'd never crack
  Most would just survive and then bounce back
  But the rest are crying "Why'd I fall for that crap"
  Why did I fall for that?
    So many rash promises sincerly made
  By people who believed that we were being saved
  They made us all believe that we were acting white
  But the truth is we've forgotten how we used to fight
  Nobody knows why we fell so flat
  We're impotent and neutered like whining cats
  We've found the piper but we've lost the rats
  But the kids are crying "Why'd I fall for that dad?"
  Why did you fall?
    It never rains under my umbrella
    Four minutes to midnight on a sunny day
  Maybe if we smile the clock'll fade away
  Maybe we can force the hands to just reverse
  Maybe a word, maybe maybe is a curse
  Nobody knows why we fell so flat
  We've never been taught to fight or to face up to facts
  We simply believe that we'd remain intact
  But history is asking why did you fall for that
  Why did you fall?
    Why did I fall for that
  Why did I fall for that
  Why did I fall for that
