|
Will our children look back |
|
With hatred or despair |
|
At a generation of idiots |
|
Who just didn't care |
|
About the fossil fuel fumes |
|
And the aerosol sprays |
|
That put holes in the ozone |
|
And let in the rays |
|
That can cause cancer in humans? |
|
And what is it all worth |
|
Heating up our globe |
|
Destroying our own |
|
Earth? What will they think |
|
Of us with no concern |
|
About the seas of shit |
|
And radiation burn? |
|
We who watched |
|
The waters of the world |
|
Turn to lakes of lava |
|
Killing every form of life? |
|
Will they have regrets |
|
For being born at all |
|
Into a world where only |
|
Acid rain can fall |
|
On all the empty fields |
|
And on the vacant lots |
|
Where cockroaches and crab grass |
|
Are the only crops? |
|
Acid rain dissolving away |
|
The monuments of man |
|
Run for your lives! |
|
Acid rain |
|
Smell the rain coming? |
|
Acid rain |
|
Run for cover now! |
|
Acid rain |
|
The water is on fire! |
|
Acid rain |
