Lyrics: The Peak Oil Song
April 25, 2008
Here it comes
Oops!There it goes
When we’ll find out – nobody knows!
That sweet black oil bubblin up from the ground
Has a short ass lifespan and we’ve no other plan
To move our cars and grow our food
to heat our homes
without that crude!
Peak oil peak oil peak oil
Why we still thinking nothings ever gonna change?
Technology won’t save us, but that ain’t so strange
Considering all the oil it takes to produce
All the objects we take for granted, even our freakin’ juice
So we keep on growing the corn
While killing our fertile soil
Hoping to find the fuel
to keep us from more turmoil
we keep on gassing our SUVs
While the oil wars wage overseas
Waiting for others to fix this thing
Is time misspent
It’s time to grow our things
Take this time to find out
Don’t rely on the mass media’s doubt
Learn how to get involved
Don’t wait for our planet to evolve
We’ve got a few years left to make things straight
Don’t let our apathy become our fate
Start with your lawn and plant some seeds
Grow your food to see how it feeds
Without the oil we can all get along
Make sure your community is healthy and strong
We might be going back in time
To a world we thought we’d left behind
Big changes are coming
Be prepared
But don’t get frightended
Don’t get scared
We need you strong
We’ll need your smarts
So reach down deep inside your hearts
And spread the word that we need to change
Then maybe peak oil won’t be so strange
