Path to Extinction

 

This Corporate world, it keeps on growin’
Forests burnin', rivers chokin’
The earth’s warming, we need urgent action

A crisis looming, but what's our leader doing?
Juggling figures, dollars, procrastinatin’

 

But they tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, they don't believe we're on the path to extinction.

 

Don't they understand what we’re trying to say?
A climate emergency, is right here today
There’s no hiding the truth, no running away.
There'll be no food to eat, there’ll be no-one to save
Look around the world, it's now time for action.

 

But they tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, they don't believe we're on the path to extinction.

 

The science is here, the earth is warmin’

Our leaders need action, not more contemplatin'
Can’t twist the truth, facts what we are facin’
Sadly marchers alone don't pass legislation
The political world is just so frustratin'

The younger generation, they keep demonstratin’

Let their voices be heard, they want climate action.

 

But they tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, they don't believe we're on the path to extinction.

 

Life on earth is in crisis, it’s a global disgrace

And Political choice won’t save the human race

Need to fight for the future, and next generations

Bring hope for the future with cooperation

For a healthy Earth, blue skies, fresh air

​

The younger generation, keep on demonstratin’

Let your voices be heard, this extinction rebellion

But they tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, they don't believe we're on the path to extinction.

No no they don't believe we're on the path to extinction.
