There’s Gen-ocide in Ga-za,

La la la la la la la la

War crimes in U-kraine!

La la la la la la

Trump-sters hate im-mi-grants,

La la la la la la la la

and the Klan’s back a-gain!

De-spite climate cri-sis and star-vation too,

we main-ly fund wars

It’s just what we do!

Vlad-imer versus V’lod-ymyr!

Netan-ya-hu versus peace!

When will this id-i-o-cy e-ver cease?

But we can be tran-quil, and thank-ful and proud,

for man’s been en-dowed with a mush-room-shaped cloud!

And we know for cer-tain that some lovely day

some-one will set the spark off, and we will all be blown a-way!

More ri-oting in Af-rica.

La la la la la la la la

More strife in I-ran.

La la la la la la

Whether foss-il fuels or nu-clear

La la la la la la la la la

We are dying by our own hand!

END THIS IDIOCY NOW!!!
