Lyrics

Climate Hero

Cheer on the climate hero

Hey, we must be talkin’ ‘bout climate change

I can see it your face, that writhing pain

Strife and strain, sacrifice your gains

For the planet and cast down your eyes in shame

Shame! Let the penance begin

The climate change flagellation of thin skin

Sin! Sin! Mother Nature’s vengeance

Never talk about mitigation as win-win

“When we get dedicated, we can mitigate it

By makin’ the expensive and difficult changes

Climate change is regrettably necessitating

So take your medicine and get educated!”

That’s the narrative, it’s time to bury it

Health benefits of mitigation so various

So serious, survival of the cheeriest

Live long and prosper, those are covariants

And yes, I know emissions are tragic

But co-emission factors are really killin’ us faster

Sulfur dioxide, particulate matter

Mercury, lead, cancer, heart conditions, asthma

Every year millions succumb to these

So fossil fuel companies are coming under siege

When emissions go down, so does lung disease

Some decisions aren’t as tough as they seem

Cheers to the planet and to your health

And to the glaciers, may they never melt

You could be the hero to someone else

But the one that you save might be yourself

Be yourself, just be yourself

The one that you save might be yourself

Go be the hero to someone else

And you might save yourself

Climate hero

Cheer on the climate hero

You say “Biking is to my liking”

My climate hero, sacrificing

That longer-life thing? That’s just icing

Fit like a Skarsgard Northern Viking

Walking not driving, cars go faster

Cars blow massive carbon smoke backwards

Walking is better for cardiovascular

Co-factors, hearts, strokes, and cancers

Especially if the physically activity

Is integrated with a nutritional scheme

Extra beans and greens and less red meat

Ancillary effect of living emission free

Is we never settle for less

And see fewer premature preventable deaths

Climate change is anthropogenic, and yes

Tackling it is bringin’ the health co-benefits

Cheers to the planet and to your health

And to the glaciers, may they never melt

You could be the hero to someone else

But the one that you save might be yourself

Be yourself, just be yourself

The one that you save might be yourself

Go be the hero to someone else

And you might save yourself

Climate hero

Cheer on the climate hero

Climate change, sacrifice and pain

But mitigation brings surprising gains

GAINS! Greenhouse Gas, Air Pollution

Interactions and Synergies, room for improvement

Build for humans, public transportation

Bike lanes, fewer cars and less pavement

Motivated by climate mitigation

Now just watch the drop in hospitalizations

Quantification of whatever destroys us

All that coal, gas, and oil emits poisons

Industrial sectors make electric choices

Tens of millions of future deaths avoided

Decades of better health, taken to account

The cost of mitigation really pays for itself

Before the effect on climate change is felt

So all my heroes, better save yourselves

Cheers to the planet and to your health

And to the glaciers, may they never melt

You could be the hero to someone else

But the one that you save might be yourself

Be yourself, just be yourself

The one that you save might be yourself

Go be the hero to someone else

And you might save yourself

Climate hero

Cheer on the climate hero…
