The Ice Age by Lucas Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 1991

[Chorus]
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... cold as hell

[Verse 1]
Grab an ear a shoulder, I'm getting older, colder
Can't even hold the thermometer 'cause I'm in a world
Where the temperature is up a 1000 degrees
But the human heart is in deep freeze
No one can seize our cosmic soul, it's out of control
You don't believe me?
Crawl out your hole and look left, right, right, left
And all that's left is human garbage
Piled up in the night, sweep it out of sight
Keep it out of sight, it is a plague, a blight
Indeed that's right
You stare, you swear you'll never forget, wanna bet?
You'll turn off that feeling like you turn off the light
Shut your mouth, shut the door, it is comin through the floor
Can't you hear it is getting cold as hell in here?
Shut your mouth, shut the door, it is comin through the floor
Can't you hear it is the ice age
[Chorus]
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... cold as hell in here

[Verse 2]
It's insanity
Man's inhumanity to man, to the land of trees and seas and rivers
And in them we are fish who wish to sleep in deep streams
With unpolluted dreams, or sometimes it seems
Were birds who wanna fly high up in an untouched sky
A tree seems to wonder why it can't just live and die in dignity
It's getting late, our fate and plans are in the frost-bitten
Hand of the ice-house in DC
We wear our lies to keep warm
But no lie protects us from the storm
We are blocks of ice in human forms
Frozen stiff wrapped in blankets of indifference
Compassion is out of style, a mile above
The towers of babble rise up can't stop
Frozen colors from bottom to top
We push and bite and scratch and hold and shove
We are Mother Nature's orphans looking for love
Looking here and there and up and down and far
The ice age, yeah that's who we are
Shut your mouth, shut the door, it is comin through the floor
Can't you hear it is getting cold as hell in here?
Shut your mouth, shut the door, it is comin through the floor
Can't you hear it is getting cold as hell in here?
Shut your mouth, shut the door, it is comin through the floor
Can't you hear it is the ice age
[Chorus]
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... cold as hell
The ice age... it's gettin' cold as hell in here
