They're getting faster and smaller too
They make our jobs easier to do
Desktop, laptop, or pocket size
In stylish colors for girls and guys
They say this is progress
They say we're moving ahead
There's a new face on "Ma-Bell"
No more "Princess", just the "cell"
Stay connected from any ole place
Talk or text in cellular space
They say this is progress
They say we're moving ahead
They fix our bodies with splints and stents
Video our insides with instruments
Stick and poke and insert rods
Prolong our lives against all odds
Prolong our lives against all odds
They say this is progress
They say we're moving ahead
But I say
Slow down our hearts and make them larger
Let's stay in touch without a charger
And with longevity, let's talk quality
Then we can say this is progress
Today's motto is "Build it Green"
Stop the warming and keep it clean
"Less consumption" say the heads of the state
Reduce our footprint...de-carbonate
Reduce our footprint...de-carbonate
They say this is progress
They say we're moving ahead
But I say
Build our nation on truth and honesty
Lead our children with integrity
And when it comes to war...less is more
Then we can say this is progress
Then we can say this is progress
Then we can say this is progress
Set our sights on nothing less
Then we can say this is progress
Then we can say this is progress
Then we can say this is progress
