Description
"Unnatural Selection" opens with a church organ before drums and "powerful" sounding guitars begin, calming down afterwards, before coming back to a 'metallic' end riff.[3] Going on to be one of the more guitar-driven songs on The Resistance.[4]
Additional information
Christopher Wolstenholme thinks that the song might address the idea of the British royal family being descendants of giant lizards, as proposed by David Icke among others.[5]
Lyrics
Incomplete and possibly incorrect
They laugh as they watch us fall The lucky don't care at all No chance for fate It's Unnatural Selection I want the truth! I'm hungry for some unrest I'm gonna push it beyond peaceful protest I wanna speak in a language they will understand Dedication to a new age This is the era of destruction and rampage Another chance to raise a little ??? again Can't you balance this commotion We're not droplets in the ocean ocean They laugh as they watch us crawl The lucky don't care at all No chance for fate It's Unnatural Selection I want the truth! No illusion of the powers ??? that they will find us Just make sure you are looking out for number one I'm hungry for some unrest I'm gonna push it beyond peaceful protest I wanna speak in a language they will understand Can't you balance this commotion We're not droplets in the ocean Ocean! They laugh as they watch us crawl The lucky don't care at all No hope for fate It's a random chance selection I want the truth! Try to ride out the storm, I'll still make you believe They are the special ones We have not been chosen Leave ??? [easier to run?] You won't be the first And you know you won't be the last ??? Can't you balance this commotion, We're not droplets in the ocean ocean, ocean! They laugh as they watch us fall The lucky don't care at all No chance for fate, It's unnatural selection, I want the truth, I want the truth, I want the truth! I want the truth!
