| Life is not fair
|
| People everywhere
|
| Are spending years analyzing
|
| A fictional affair
|
| Think of global warming!
|
| Help me spread the warning!
|
| And forget about it
|
| By tomorrow morning
|
| You’ve got time to spare
|
| Tell me, will you dare
|
| To spend your life as a volunteer
|
| So life could be fair?
|
| And when you were younger
|
| You didn’t die of hunger!
|
| Think of all the children starving —
|
| An impressive number!
|
| Tell me now how you sleep
|
| Safe from bombs and falling fires
|
| Will your world just die when
|
| They pull out tubes and wires?
|
| Your compassion is strong
|
| It just goes and comes along
|
| And the only way to end it —
|
| Is to sing a dreadful song!
|
| See the climate changing?
|
| Feel the planet ageing?
|
| Thinking that you’ll die before it
|
| Is so much engaging!
|
| Life’s not really fair
|
| Feel all that despair
|
| Just acknowledge all the horrors
|
| Like you really care
|
| Tell me now how you sleep
|
| Safe from bombs and falling fires
|
| Will your world just die when
|
| They pull out tubes and wires?
|
| Your compassion is strong
|
| It just goes and comes along
|
| And the only way to end it —
|
| Is to sing a dreadful song!
|
| Sing a very dreadful song…
|
| Feel the dread and sing along…
|
| Let me tell you how I sleep
|
| Safe from bombs and falling fires
|
| And my world will die when
|
| They pull out tubes and wires
|
| My compassion is strong
|
| It just goes and comes along
|
| I know how to calm it down —
|
| I just write a dreadful song!
|
| Sing with me a dreadful song!
|
| Feel the dread and sing along! |
