Climate Dance

Well let me tell you 'bout the climate dance, it's easy to do

You're nervous and you're jumpy cos this world's nearly through

So down some more tea, watch some foreign T.V.

Put your mind on anything but the truth

World leaders got a climate dance so easy to do

You grab hold of that treaty and you tear it in two

Then go back to your people and spin them a yarn

'Bout how the earth ain't gonna come to no harm

We got to cut our emissions by ninety-five per cent

And you can fritter your money but I tell you we're already spent

Big business got a climate dance that's easy to do

Cos all the politicans gonna dance to your tune

And you get the statistics and give them a skew

So you can get away from paying your due

Campaigners got a climate dance like some rapping crew

You talk and then you talk and then you talk 'til you're blue

But it's only when you sabotage their machine

That you ever get a word on the news

We got to cut our emissions by ninety-five per cent

And you can fritter your money but I tell you we're already spent

Warning shots across the bow

Say nature's getting angry now

And look around the plastic world we made

Yeah the righteous got a climate dance that's foolproof to do

You simply nod your head and say "well I always knew"

But the knowledge is wasted when you don't react

So just what good's it ever gonna do you?

Yeah we all have got a climate dance so easy to do

We'd better do it quick or else this disco is through

It's spreading the action and spreading the word

Gotta get the message seen, get it heard

We got to cut our emissions by ninety-five per cent

And you can fritter your money but I tell you we're already spent (x2)

Warning shots across the bow

Say nature's getting angry now

And look around the plastic world we made

Fossil fuel's for fossil-heads

And we're dozing in our prison beds

Instead of working out how to be saved...
