population doubles
every 25 years
just a couple decades
uh-oh uh-oh
well you know we double
but the food supply
doesn't double with us
uh-oh uh-oh

Thomas Robert Malthus
the second son of 8 kids
grew up with a stutter
uh-oh uh-oh
with the revolution
came a lot of high hopes
Malthus took a good look
uh-oh uh-oh
