lyrics

"Everything's Looking Up in Subterranea"

There's no room left
on the surface world
So they built luxury towers
underground, and now
Everything's looking up in Subterranea

In dark foreboding towers
where phosphorescent rodents live
People in business suits
are making phone calls to their brokers
Everything's looking up in Subterranea

Subterranea ...
Isn't it ironic that the upper crust are moving in?

A robot ferry captain
takes you through an aqueduct to work
Or if you are ambitious
you can commute by spelunking
Everything's looking up in Subterranea

Subterranea …
It used to be a place where even drummers could afford to live
