Emergency |
| The revolution will be industrial! |
| Well, charged like the Battle of Beersheba and Istabulat |
| And didn’t you know it’s all combustible |
| We got born again greens just because its tax deductable |
| I’m optimistic but the dots need to be joined |
| And now you lift a finger in response but just to point |
| That’s the quickest way to disappoint, Maybe you missed the point |
| This is way bigger than the list have joined |
| We can spruik credentials. |
| No matter how inconsequential |
| We treat it like essential. |
| I could sacrifice a non-essential |
| Call myself environmental! |
| Anything outside of this is accidental |
| (New Orleans) Yasi! |
| Slogans are their mantra |
| We can’t look to government and industry for answers |
| They only got a golden hand shake and a plan to abandon the ship way before we |
| deal with the cancer |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| Calmly, you told me you had a plan |
| Even Arnie in the 90's had a car that ran electric |
| They held back the tech. |
| shit! |
| Now its gotten hectic |
| They can’t deflect it, Not like its unexpected |
| Aussie kids dying at the tyrants directive |
| In the dust of the cradle of civilisation |
| The middle east was once well vegetated |
| Now, check out Australia, a fragile equation |
| Even the Anglican Church says that a terrorist invasion is not the real issue |
| If your waiting for an end to floods and drought; |
| here’s a tissue |
| The Nats will dismiss you and pray for a solution |
| Shame, there is no neighbour to blame for the pollution |
| At least there is absolution and carbon credits |
| It begins and ends at home if we let it |
| A letter to your MP, sign the petition |
| We’re waiting on you man, to make the hard decisions |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| Calmly, you told me you had a plan |
| It was the dumbest thing we could have known |
| We take and take 'til there was no more |
| Justify the human breed. |
| We are blinded by our wants and needs |
| So the seas will swirl, disease be rife, the soil became dust and dust become |
| life as we know it |
| And you denied it, And yet you told me you had a plan |
| And you told me you had a plan |
| This is an emergency! |
| And you told me you had a plan |
| Ashes to ashes and dust to dust. |
| And you told me you had a plan |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| And you told me you had a plan |
| This is an emergency! |
| Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
| This is an emergency! |
| This is an emergency! |
| And you told me you had a plan |
| You told me! |
