Not Like This

Burger King taking a risk 
  But why leave like this 

They say times are changing 
  World economies rearranging 

Rearranging mankind's life 
  Now legislated role as wife 

Budget increase for drones 
  Are making our world moan 

Moaning for what's to come 
  Angels' song or missile hum 

Maybe someone will help us 
  Before the radioactive dust 

Vladimir Putin's new vision 
  Ushered in a new season 

Wars and rumors of wars 
  It's time to habitat Mars 

Changing Biblical history 
  Could bring more misery 

So, not like this 
  Earth we'll miss.
