The lyrics are out of order though. The original starts in about 1949 and moves roughly forward in time, never backtracking by more than a year or two. The FOB lyrics are all over the place from the start:

  • Captain Planet 1990
  • Arab Spring 2010
  • LA Riots and Rodney King 1991
  • Deep Fakes 2015ish as a media thing?
  • Earthquakes without more context? Lame!
  • Iceland volcano, probably the 2010 of Eyjafjallajökull

True that was annoying.
