DTo slow Ddown as fast as possiAble
GCrisis on the screen too many
Tabs before my eye
But Gthere's no Dtime

Over doubts the future carries
  Dsus2It's Dnot the key to keep us Asafe
GRedefine connections and
Put our padlocks on Dsus2the   Dbridge, oh Aoh
[Chorus 1]
GHear the same old DsoAngs
Blow the Gdust off the records
Mr. BmCash starts to roll
AListening to the tunes we're
Not so different at all
