The World Is In the Dumpster

The world's been in the dumpster forever An intolerable state of affairs Isn't it about time we changed our ways It's badly in need of repairs Let's start a pact to end our disputes Some think it's beyond possibility Need somebody to step up to the plate Us humans have great adaptability Think I just heard a scoff or two Now that's been a part of the problem If we all just put aside our differences We'd be much more able to solve them Probably sound like a big ole know-it-all To me, it just makes common sense Adapt or it's curtains for all human kind Must do something in any event
