RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL WARMING
Somethings Gotta Give
Reservoirs filled to the tipping point
Snowpack primed to melt away
Too many men on a lifeboat
Too many who want to stay
We’re waiting for the next disaster
We’re trying our best to live
We all know what comes after
Something has got to give
And nobody knows when it will be
When the walls come crashing down
Like a ship of fools lost at sea
We vanish without a sound
The actress made her final film
She pushed her friends away
They saw just what was happening
And no one wanted to play
They were waiting for her final take
They prayed she would want to live
She ended it for goodness sake
She had nothing left to give
And nobody knows when it will be
When it all comes tumbling down
Like a ship of fools lost at sea
We’ll vanish without a sound
