Mobility scooters race to charity shops,
As single mums scrap over half price escallops,
Natter drug dispensers pull out all the stops,
Emphysema pancakes from dust in the crops,
We are the people, The people of this planet earth,
Why have we milked it? Milked it for all it was worth?
We didn’t need to, Leaving it there wouldn’t of hurt,
We should protect it, Protect it for all we are worth,
Car screeches and the dance of the seatbelt begins,
The old lady on the corner balls up invisible string,
Shell suited supermarket raiders do their thing,
As greasy cheeked kiddies in harmony sing
We are the children, The children of this planet earth,
Why have you milked it? Milked it for all it was worth?
You didn’t need to, Leaving it all there wouldn’t of hurt,
We have to rebuild it, Rebuild it for all that we’re worth
Stubborn little pumpkins need to carve a new smile,
Today’s fashion statement tomorrow runs a mile,
And you think that you will always be in style?
Orange girls bleaching their hair tills it’s white,
As oily pecks mass debate straight through the night,
With eyes tightly closed shouting ‘Everything’s alright’
We are the beings, The beings of this planet earth,
We really shouldn’t have milked it, Milked it for all it was worth,
Still we can now try, Now try to put everything right,
Stop pointing the fingers of blame, And clean up all of this bull sh*te
Then everything might be alright x3
