Song lyrics

This is an expedition
Into the Arctic tundra
This is a sickening mission (yeah!)
Just to spoil and plunder

That's the sound of another door shutting
In the face of progress
In the face of progress
They'll plant their flags in the sea bed
Shackleton is rolling in his grave

That's the sound of another door shutting
In the face of progress
In the face of progress
They'll plant their flags in the sea bed
Shackleton is rolling in his grave

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're all addicted to the most abusive and destructive drug of all time.
And I ain't talking about class A's that business is minuscule when compared.
And just like any addict desperate to get his next fix we resort to committing crimes to secure our next hit.

You know there's oil in the ice
You know there's oil in my eyes
You know there's blood on my hands

Yeah, we're all addicted
Yeah, we're all dependent

That's a maniac stand point
A psychotic outlook
That's a maniac stand point
A psychotic outlook

That's the sound of another door shutting
In the face of progress
In the face of progress
They'll plant their flags in the sea bed
Shackleton is rolling in his grave

That's the sound of another door shutting
In the face of progress
In the face of progress
They'll plant their flags in the sea bed
Shackleton is rolling in his grave

So let me get this straight as we witness the ice caps melt.
Instead of been spurred into changing our ways we're gonna invest in military hardware to fight for the remaining oil that left beneath the ice!
What happens when it's all gone?
You haven't thought this through, have you boys?

We'll take you down
We'll take you down
We'll take you down
Stand your ground

You know there's oil in the ice
You know there's oil in my eyes
You know there's blood on my hands

Yeah, we're all addicted
Yeah, we're all dependent

That's a maniac stand point
A psychotic outlook
That's a maniac stand point

Yeah, back to the drawing board boys.
Accept nothing short of complete reversal.
Dig deep.
