Long before man this planet
throbbed with the echoes of life
Their were massive sheet of ice
this wondering glacial paradise
Altitude determines the air-pressure
a barometer’s instrumental measure
the rush of the flowing freezing rain
welcome to this frozen barren land
Ocean’s currents in the jet streams
actively tempering the climate extremes
Precipitation no this was preparations
for civilization’s potential for devastation
Industrialization a wonder and surprise
greenhouse gases warming morning sky’s
The planet’s thermal Fahrenheit will erupt
seas rising, ozone thinning, El Nino will disrupt
Who investigates! economical cost is the debate
legislation sits and waits! man’s future is left to fate
Lightening striking across continental longitudes
while the moon trigger global atmospheric attitudes
gusty! gale force winds, typhoons inpatient once again
death! destruction! it’s insane, we now give them names
Still man squabbles in vain, the reasons remain strange
There will be pain to go with that thermometer change
