Rode the distance twice on race day ‘cause I thought that it was vital
turns out I just misunderstood what it meant to recycle
I’m separating glass from plastic, busy every day and night
But it takes so long I no longer have time to switch off lights
I take my own bags when I shop because it’s safer and wise
I’ve saved so many dolphins Attenborough gave me a high five
I never use deodorant because CFC’s aren’t clean
so don’t ever say I smell bad rather say that I smell green
The climate is changing, the weather’s rearranging
should have listened more to Al Gore when he started his campaigning
Water levels rising, don’t be late in realising
you better get a wet suit ‘cause we’ll all be scuba diving
To cut down on emissions I don’t ever start my car
If your destination is downhill, freewheeling gets you far
And if you drive an SUV you are someone I don’t respect
You leave a bigger carbon footprint than Tyrannosaurus Rex
When I’m out of toilet paper and there’s none left in my home
I tear out the Yellow Pages which have numbers I won’t phone
I cook all of my food using the heat waves from the sun
Yes you might get salmonella but you can’t please everyone
The climate is changing, the weather’s rearranging
Find another use for umbrellas ‘cause soon it won’t be raining
Water levels rising, don’t be late in realising
We’ll all have indoor swimming pools and furniture capsizing
I’m just about the most organic man I know
I only ever buy free range potatoes
I eat my five a day so I’ll never get ill
I’ll probably live forever unless I’m killed
Soya is my favourite thing on earth
my suits are made of tofu for what it’s worth
I only drink water straight from a spring
but I live in the city so I’m dehydrating
The climate is changing, the weather’s rearranging
Water levels rising, don’t be late in realising
The climate is changing, the weather’s rearranging
But it’s still hot so there are not a lot of us complaining
Water levels rising, don’t be late in realising
We should build an ark like Noah so we can go on surviving
