lyrics

In response to the 4th Report May 2007
for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
U.S. Chief Climate Negotiator Harlan Watson said
It is important not to jeopardise economic growth

Hasn't he heard.... that we are hurtling

Hottest day hottest month hottest year
hottest day hottest month hottest year
there's a back fence joke bing called across the land
Another drought another flood and freak tornadoes
fires are rising higher - they're laughing
soon we'll be tossing away all our winter clothes

Haven't they heard... that we are hurtling

Squinting blindly into the glaring future
hands deep in pockets fiddling with the small change
sucked into this suicidal system while
precious time to act pours down the drain

Haven't we heard...that we are hurtling
