The Global Warming Blues

This is a song about an imaginary threat
That’s got the liberal party all upset.
They think the Earth is getting too hot, you see.
They say the fault lies with the acts of men
Who have polluted the sea, the air and land
Just for the sake of the deadly sin of greed.

There’s this ex-VP named Mr. Al Gore
Who presents himself as knowing the score
About the way we’re destroying the planet, he believes.
Now, I don't know what Al Gore's done,
He just might be the Prodigal Son, but
I don't think his degree's in Climatology.

Well, man made Global Warming might a fact
But, we can’t reliably trace the temperatures back
More than a couple of generations, or maybe three.
And, these people who are spreading this global fear
Telling us that the end of the world is quite near
Should just crawl back in their air-conditioned limousines.

If the truth of the matter is ever told
The Earth goes through periods of hot and cold
Sometimes the icebergs melt and sometimes they freeze.
Global Warming’s just an unfounded fear
The science of the matter still ain’t clear.
Plus, I heard we are only up about one degree.

Yep, in the Summer it always gets real hot
and, the Winter months are comparitively not.
It's Mother Nature who gets to choose how it’s gonna be.
There’s a whole lot of things wrong in this day and time
From legislative corruption to rampant crime
to the woeful lack of gasoline refineries.

So, for all you worried environmentalists out there,
I’m telling you its not the time for dispair,
let’s just calm ourselves down and get a good night's sleep.
The earth is serveral billion years old
And, she will be around for serveal billion more
This ain't the end of the world, you just wait and see.
