  • Hello helicopter, are you here to stay?
    Bodies, rest and motion fighting night and day
    Well it's kill or be killed
    And one day we'll get the best of them
    Hello helicopter, will you be my friend?
    Will you take me away?

    Hello helicopter,have you heard the news?
    No one gives a shit about the things they do
    We all waste and consume, destroy and ruin everything we touch
    It's easy not to think when you're not told that much

    I'm not saying anything you haven't heard before
    I'm just trying to understand the way we are

    Hello helicopter, are you lost out there?
    Swimming through the garbage dump that fills the air
    In several more years no one will care
    They'll be rich and dead
    So let somebody else devise a cure for it

    I'm not saying anything you haven't heard before
    I'm just trying to understand the way we are

    Nobody seems to care
    Nobody ever learns
    Hello helicopter, are you here to stay?
    Bodies, rest and motion fighting night and day
    Well it's kill or be killed
    And one day we'll get the best of them
    Hello helicopter, are you listening?

    Nobody seems to care
    Nobody ever learns

    Are we ever going to get it right?
    Are we ever going to start making sense
    And stop pretending that we care?

    Are we ever going to get it right?
    Are we ever going to start making sense
    And stop pretending that we care?

    Are we ever going to get it right?
    Are we ever going to start making sense
    And stop pretending...

    Hello helicopter, are you here to stay?
    Bodies, rest and motion fighting night and day
    Well it's kill or be killed
    And one day we'll get the best of them
    Hello helicopter, are you listening? Writer/s: JESSE MACK JOHNSON, JOSHUA ALLEN CAIN, JUSTIN COURTNEY PIERRE, MATTHEW SCOTT TAYLOR, TONY RICHARD THAXTON
