about

Written and recorded on October 18, 2020. Greta VS the crack pots. It is about taking on the science deniers and the political and religious conservatives and nut-jobs that refuse to see how they are destroying the Earth. Go, Greta! We all need to be more like you.

lyrics

You run into the street, but it’s not because you are scared
You heard a crash and you saw a flash, but you didn’t expect to see me
What could you do to save the world again?
When they smash it down, and they burn another town
Will you stand up to the sky and reign?

When the tyrants go ahead and scorch the sky
And they don’t even try to justify
When the peaceful people can only stand by and watch
While the tyrants crucify
The truth and the Earth and the future and our lives

I fell into a dream and thought I could save the world
But I can’t find a way to make it through another day
And I’m so afraid that I cannot move
You turn another leaf, and burned their houses down
You stood up to the mighty and you broke their favorite toys
So they tried to push back against me

When the tyrants go ahead and scorch the sky
And they don’t even try to justify
When the peaceful people can only stand by and watch
While the tyrants crucify
The truth and the Earth and the future of our lives

You ran into the street, but not because you were scared
You heard a crash and you saw a flash, and you didn’t expect to see me
What could you do to save the world again?
They will smash it down, and they'll burn another town
Will you stand up to the sky and reign?
