Aliens 03:30
When aliens arrive, they will perceive us as aliens When aliens arrive, we must receive them as friends When aliens arrive, exhausted from their journey We must help them survive our alien atmosphere

Superpowers 05:06
And if I could see the future, I would use my power to warn you And if I had the strength of thousands, I would crush your enemies. And if I had telekinesis, I would twitch your lips in a smile And if I was invisible I would stand guard over you You were strong in the face of the cruel joke nature played on you And you belong in the rarefied pantheon of my heroes And if I could be miniaturised I'd use my bare hands to fight the infection And if I could do superscience I'd find the poison that poisons the poison If my stride was as wide as the ocean I would leap your bedside If I could choose my superpower, I would choose to be more like you If I could choose my superpower I would choose to be you You were strong in the face of the cruel joke nature played on you And you belong in the rarefied pantheon of my heroes You were strong in the face of the cruel joke nature played on you And you belong in the rarefied pantheon of my heroes

We held a party at the end of the world We held a disco for the end of time We held a rave for the death of the universe And there were fireworks There was a cage and a stage and a smoke machine There was a bouncer selling tabs at the bar There was a girl in a silver bikini And a bogan with a crimson guitar Dance til you die And as the sky was exploding around us We chose whether to laugh or to cry We turned our backs on the DJ And we hugged each other goodbye Dance til you die

Dust 03:23
Watch me denature and rust Watch me spontaneously combust Witness my entropic decline Watch my DNA unwind We are just temporary lives We are a collection of knives Snagged in the fabric of time Life's short...make the best of it We are just a coincidence A lucky alignment of chance There is no reason or rhyme There's just the sharing of this moment in time It would be cool to be birds in the sky Just a flap of the wings and we're high But you can't fight gravity's pull Stay grounded...make the best of it There's only one truth you can trust We will decay into dust Our matter cannot be destroyed But our atoms will be redeployed We are just temporary lives We are a collection of knives Snagged in the fabric of time Life's short...make the best of it
