Wake up, in the morning
And check the feed
Another headline painting us with sloth and greed
We bear the blame, endure the scorn
Outraged and furious
We're killing diamond rings but you are killing us
Hope for the future so long forgotten
How can we turn the tide
Oceans rise, wages fall
Who's going to fix it all
We're left the mess you made
We are the youth betrayed
Reaping, all the profits
From the planet you condemned
You chose to keep the carbon candle burning at both ends
Lazy, entitled wretches
Too weak to carry on
Well there'll be no more snowflakes when the polar ice is gone
Hope for the future so long forgotten
How can we turn the tide
Oceans rise, wages fall
Who's going to fix it all
We're left the mess you made
We are the youth betrayed
Hope for the future so long forgotten
How can we turn the tide
Oceans rise, wages fall
Who's going to fix it all
We're left the mess you made
We are the youth betrayed
