Let's grow, there will be no more sorrow
 Let's grow, still our rate is too low
 Let's grow, a magical remedy 
Let's grow, get your credit cards ready We have achieved the perfect system
 Yet sometimes life can be tough 
There’s only one explanation
 We haven’t tried hard enough Famine, war, disease
 Worldwide deadly industries
 Just a bunch of minor snags
 Unite under our flag Innovative technology
 And trickle-down economy
 Will solve inconvenient shit
 Just increase our benefits One thing is for sure 
The poison is the cure Let's grow, there will be no more sorrow
 Let's grow, still our rate is too low
 Let's grow, a magical remedy
 Let's grow, get your credit cards ready You’ve got a crucial role to play
 Work, buy shut up and obey
 Don’t listen to commie scum
 You’ll feast on leftover crumbs Were your crops wrecked by the heat? - Let’s grow 
Your house crushed by a mudslide? - Let’s grow
 Are you freezing in the street? - Let’s grow 
Has your whole family died? - Let’s grow Get over it, roll up you sleeves
 And get to work, you lazy chump
 We’ve got a growth rate to retrieve 
A brighter future is to come

I clambered over mounds and mounds
 of polystyrene foam
 And fell into a swimming pool
 filled with fairy snow And watched the world turn day-glo
 You know you know
 The world turned day-glo
 You know 
I wrenched the nylon curtains back
 as far as they would go
 And peered through Perspex window panes at the acrylic road
 And watched the world turn day-glo
 You know you know
 The world turned day-glo You know
 
I drove my polypropylene car on wheels of sponge Then pulled into a Wimpy bar to have a rubber bun 
And watched the world turn day-glo 
You know you know The world turned day-glo 
You know
 The X-rays were penetrating tThrough the latex breeze
 Synthetic fibre see-thru leaves
 fell from the rayon trees The day the world turned day-glo 
You know you know
 The world turned day-glo
 You know

about

Before sinking into an 11-year-long cryptobiosis, Growth released its first EP in 2007. Therefore, I wanted to end 2022 by celebrating this 15th anniversary.
Happy Collapse was one of the songs featured on Growth and decay of mankind, and I thought it was still relevant and deserved an updated (and hopefully better) version. Based on original riffs and lyrics, it went through a full reconstruction.
X-Ray Spex's The day the world turned day-glo gets covered as a B-side. Its riff already sounded almost industrial, and the lyrics fit Happy Collapse's theme.
