Wake Up to What You Know
When the border where the ocean meets the shore
is some twenty inches higher than before,
and the heat-oppressed come charging down your door;
when the farmer's tears evaporate in dust,
when your stocks and bonds and dividends combust,
will you wonder if your love was only lust?
Wake up to what you know!
Shake up the status quo!
We keep our eyes on the ground,
and hoard our pennies and pounds,
we hide our heads in the sand,
and say it's out of our hands.
When our children's children scavenge in the sand,
or they see the ocean swallow up their land,
they'll remember us and try to understand
how the cards were on the table all along,
and the scientific evidence was strong,
when we sacrificed their future for a song.

Wake up to what you know!
Shake up the status quo!
So stop faffing around
and get your feet off the ground!
We gotta make 'em come round
and keep the coal in the ground!
Hope springs eternal,
but we don't have that time.
So before we have burned all
all our bridges, let a stime,
let a light so bright
come dissipate the night,
let the future pain
feed back into the main
and travel back to us again!
