\nfinally braking through,
\nour ozone layer being sliced in two
\nlike a climatic finale to end all shows.
\nDespite office blocks and houses,
\nretail parks and shopping centres,
\nroad humps everyone hates
\nincinerating like yesterday\u2019s news.
\nDespite the human race becoming
\nmelted cheese on the cosmic pizza,
\nroving extra-terrestrials will still find
\na shopping trolley in the canal.<\/p>\n
