lyrics

In the midst of the Atomic age
we were in a bit of a Cold War
There came the rise of a new material
made of dinosaur
It was so convenient
‘cause it was cheap and it would never rot away
But who would’ve thought that we’d become
a society who loves to throw away?

Plastic runs the world
Plastic runs the world
And to avoid an ecological apocalypse
you’ve gotta make your voices heard

Haven’t we seen the warnings?
Hasn’t it been made clear?
The seas are filled with plastic
from pier to pier to pier
There are no signs of slowing down
making 300 million tons a year
It’s getting into animals then getting into us
but lies prevent the fear

We can’t just say “recycle”
to stall our plastic dying
Throwaway culture has to end
We’ve gotta get it into people’s minds
Act like Captain Charles Moore
who publicized sea gyres
‘Cause you’ve really gotta make your voices heard
if you want to transform consciousness higher
