Disclaimer, Disclaimer, Disclaimer!!!
Some scientists went walking out,
One dark and windy day,
Upon a glacier tested,
In a scientific way,
When all at once a mighty flow,
Of melted ice they seen,
Flowin’ down the jagged caps,
Into the arctic sea.
A bolt of fear went through them
As the data would imply
A warmer future coming
And it caused a mournful cry
Their faces gaunt
Their eyes a blurr
Their studies soaked in sweat
They’re trying hard to spread the word
Oh, but the world ain’t heard ’em yet
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Greenhouse gasses in the sky
The planet is on fire
The effects are going to last
Storms are getting fiercer
And the seas are rising fast
People change your ways today
Or forever you will try
To chase that carbon capture
Across a greenhouse sky
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Greenhouse gasses in the sky
This Week in science…
