Lyrics:
Well I just woke up from suspended animation
And I think I must have slept right through an alien invasion
Cos everything I’ve loved has been destroyed or damaged
And everybody’s speaking in a strange new language
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
We know it’s hard to be heard
When every speech is slurred
By those whose vision is blurred
Who weaponize the word
According to the howl of the herd
Above the cry of the bird
But we are undeterred
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
I woke up to a world on the edge of disaster
Where everyone’s mistaking the slave for the master
I can’t tell the difference between real and simulation
Is this now? Is this then? Is this just imagination??
This is a Diffrnt wrld
This is the shock of the new
And we’re at the back of the queue
But we just gotta get through
We’re led by a renegade crew
We’re trapped in a wire canoe
There’s no-one else to turn to
it’s just me and you
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
This is a Dffrnt Wrld
