Natural Disaster Songtext
von Bethany Cosentino

It′s August 1st in a parking lot
And there's a guy with a radio
He sure got a lot to say, got a lot to sell
So I′ll look the other way
And there's a girl with a cigarette in her mouth
She's on the phone, I can tell she′s from the South
She′s walking backwards, wants to be an actor
Why am I listening?

It's so much easier to focus on the things
That don′t involve me

This is the hottest summer I can ever remember
'Cause the world is on fire
And, hey, if we′re all dying, then what does it matter?
We're a natural disaster
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

There′s a preacher and he's on the TV
He says the world is ending and you can get free
If you want to, another useless breakthrough
Closer to the truth


It's so much easier to focus on the things
That don′t involve me

This is the hottest summer I can ever remember
′Cause the world is on fire
And, hey, if we're all dying, then what does it matter?
We′re a natural disaster

And what if I don't wanna give up yet?
I haven′t seen enough of it
And what if we just listened for a change
Instead of acting like we know it all?
'Cause we know nothing at all
Yeah, we know nothing at all
This is the summer of our discontent
And, baby, we′ve gotta change, change it

This is the hottest summer I can ever remember
'Cause the world is on fire
And, hey, if we're all dying, then what does it matter?
We′re a natural disaster
This is the hottest summer I can ever remember (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
And, hey, if we′re all dying, then what does it matter?
We're a natural disaster
