If you have even a passing interest in the environment then you have to read this.

Shit, better start my hedonistic burnout now before it's too late.

Rings true I'm in party mode as there is no off switch and will probably be dead in 35 years max.

Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing

News had just come over, we had 3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds years left to cry in

News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying

Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying

I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies

I saw boys, toys electric irons and t.v.s

My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare

I had to cram so many things to store everything in there

And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people

And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people

I never thought Id need so many people

A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children

If the black hadnt a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them

A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac

A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that

I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long

Smiling and waving and looking so fine, dont think

You knew you were in this song

And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor

And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there

Your face, your race, the way that you talk

I kiss you, youre beautiful, I want you to walk

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, stuck on my eyes

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, what a surprise

Weve got 3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, my brain hurts a lot

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, thats all weve got

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, what a surprise

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, stuck on my eyes

Weve got 3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, my brain hurts a lot

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, thats all weve got

3 years, 7 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds, stuck on my eyes

A rather scary, totally unsubstantiated and fact free, article from AlterNet.org

If you have even a passing interest in the environment then you should research, learn the facts - then present a cogent argument and propose solutions.

[woofmarkthedog]
