Before We Are Smothered By Our Own Pollution
According to his scientists’ age and serious calibration
This half-ass earth life is merely a fleshly demonstration
To test each and every crooked politician and nation
To see where they like their minions in mass to vacation.
According to the king’s ambassador’s correction
We are going in a complete and opposite direction
We need to think about a heartfelt revolution
Before we are all smothered by our own pollution
If our bunkers are not built of plutonium construction,
We might soon be feeling a bit of underlying obstruction
For this is not a mere simpleton’s warning demonstration,
But rather a call for you to use your imagination.
If things continue environmentally in the same direction
You can throw away all thoughts of any kind of true affection
For we will be too busy trying to breathe as a gas-masked nation
To communicate, laugh, love, or take selfies, let alone vacation.
