The Herd Follow

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!
