He loves to go out shopping in his SUV

A car that large is rocking, fits him to a tee

When he gets behind the wheel, hears that engine whine

He doesn’t think of the gasoline he’s burning all the time

Will it be now or later, when he gets a clue

Global warming’s coming, babe, it’s gunna get you

 

I make so much money I could buy me a continent

Gunna build me a trophy house with every complement

A fridge as big a Venus, a stove as big as Mars

With all the modern conveniences, you see I’m a star

Will it be now or later, when he gets a clue

Global warming’s coming, babe, it’s gunna get you

 

Glaciers are all melting, the Arctic’s turning green

Polar bears have seen their lairs go floating down the stream

Harp seals have changed color, they’re no long white

They’re now bronze complected and extremely uptight

Will it be now or later, when we get a clue

Global warming’s coming, babe, it’s gunna get you
