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...
