lyrics

there's no one about as the smog descends
schools are shuttered and the street bereft
of pedestrians and automobiles
the cloying stench stings the nostrils

beijing is a ghost town now
i've never seen this metropolis so uncrowded
we must stay indoors
on government orders

but ambling through the thick particulate
a shadowy figure in a suit bespoke
unbroken by the poisoned air
he thinks he can afford not to care

in his gold-plated gucci gas mask

atmospheric stratification has reached its upper limits
we peer fearfully from behind drawn curtains
at his monstrous and moneyed countenance
he thinks he can afford to take the chance

in his gold-plated gucci gas mask

transfixed by the splendor amidst the spew
there's not a lot left for us to do
but to rush him in the middle of the street
coughing and with bloodied hands, he falls at our feet

in his gold-plated gucci gas mask
