This song is in direct response to this:https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/22/politics/feinstein-video-sunrise-movement-kids/index.html

But it's a general overall feeling, too.

You believe in science
Think climate change is real
But oh no we can’t afford
A Green New Deal
The reports are dire
The scientists are clear
But you say it’s unrealistic
To change things in 10 years

But you’ll already be dead
On judgment day
Your time has come and gone
Now get out of our way
If you’re not gonna fight
For a future for my kids
Then I’m not sure
What the point of you is

Aliens are invading
We’re fighting for our lives
And we have 12 years
To somehow turn the tide
You say we can’t afford it
You want incrementalism
Tell me can you hear
How stupid that sounds

Politics is broken
It happened on your watch
You gave big money
All the keys to all the locks
So the time has come
To try something else
We’d love to have you with us
But if you don’t want to help



Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 10+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
