Intro noises are composed of construction sounds from the University of British Columbia. You'd think with so many brilliant people around they would be able to see the effects of constant development and engine roar.

lyrics

What a noisy the place the city's become
the pounding of the concrete to the beat of my drum
quiet down, everybody quiet down, quiet down come on

What a noisy place the city's become
the buzzing of machinery has all just begun
so quiet down, everybody quiet down, quiet down come on

What a busy place our world has become
we stack up all the cars reach them up to the sun
so slow down everybody slow down, slow down come on

We gotta quit pretending not to see what our world has become
all the trust has been removed so we'll all just buy guns
he puts his finger on the trigger counts 3-2-1
says that'll be that he's all done

What a quiet place the world will be
when the oceans start to rise and we're all under the sea
you and I swimming far beneath, I suppose this is how fate thinks
that things are supposed to be
