 Chorus: Across the land we drive

while exhaust fumes rise

hovering over the globe

Trapping too much sun

till the warming up’s all done

and makes the polar regions flow.

 

Once the ice caps melt we’ll go to the beach

All along the shore where Kansas used to be

No wheat fields waving, now they’re underneath the sea

Farmers finally rich selling beachfront property!

 

Once the ice caps melt Dallas is a port;

Scuba dive “On Broadway” the popular new sport;

Slide down Glacier National, our newest waterpark

And watch the fundamentalists build yet another ark!

 

Once the ice caps melt Nashville is the bayou,

The Mississippi will back up and inundate Ohio.

With “blue” states high and dry, and the “red” ones ‘neath the waves

Conservatives are swept away but liberals are saved!

 

We’ll sink or swim as things begin to change

Cause in a hundred years it will be . . .

 

Foam, foam on the range

Where the deer and the antelope played

Where seldom was heard a discouraging word

And the skies were not cloudy all day
