Mother Nature is beaten down
Science is on the run
Policy is made by a clown
This planet is nearly done
Greed will kill all of us
Short-sighted and weak
Silence those who make a fuss
The future is looking bleak
The gray skies rain pernicious gases
Chemicals leaking all around us
Ocean life is dying in masses
Corporate greed is treasonous
Leaders are bought by Wall Street
Changing temps are just another phase
Hoping the opposition faces defeat
While the stressed forests go up in blaze
Earth is the only option for our habitat
Extinction looms large in the forecast
Don’t leave survival to the plutocrat
Who’s interests represent the iconoclast
Many hide, science will save our lives
Survival runs second to maximum dividends
Our globe should be the only thing that thrives
Is there courage to reverse these deadly trends
Listen to this scared angry little world
It is warning us of perils straight ahead
Species are dying their toes already curled
The clock counts down till we’re all dead
