Talkin' Global Warming

This is a talking blues in the style of Chris Bouchillon or Woody Guthrie:


You say it's getting hotter and the world is just a stew
And your CO2 is rising and you don't know what to do
Well, all that means is the devil's got a ruse
And you're just suffering the global warming blues.
all a boilin', a drownin', a swelterin', sweat drippin' down

And you say your politicians are so afraid
of anything else but a carbon trade
or maybe a nuke plant or fake clean coal
And meanwhile the ice melts on both your poles.
no polar bears, no penguins, no islands in the wide Pacific

So, you take the situation in your own two hands
And you send the politicians to a peanut stand.
You make the big bosses turn their dampers down
and you sweep their carbon footprints out of town.
no pollutin', change your ways, cool it down now or be replaced.
