Line Dancin’ With Gaia

 

Aw’ hell she’s all hot–her heat-up’s begun 

Tell me, please; what I do, hon?

I can’t stop tornadoes or bugs on the march

The glaciers are toast,  you’re changing the coast

—

Her temperature spikes when pine fires leap           

Gaia my love–is this your cycle for heat?

Aw’ hell she’s all hot–her heat-up’s begun 

Tell me, please; what I do, hon?

I didn’t force the coral to bleach

I didn’t decide to murder the bees

I didn’t plan to let methane prevail

I didn’t plot to have species fail

—

Her anger won’t thin; she’s into her grouch

Oh baby no, not a night on the couch

Okay then fine–I’ll solar on the roof

I’ll lasso the moon, of course it’s the truth

I know PVs fair and wind is a win

We’ll compost real soon–oops–too much spin

A nationwide drought, please don’t do that

It’s that darn ENSO’s fault, not my fossil fuel spout

—

I don’t want to fight, I jus wanna’ love

Can’t we jus’ talk?

Waddaya’ mean I’m a dork?

Yeah, you’re right I gulp too much gas

But my MBAs say shale’s, “Too good to pass…”

Ya’ hate the pipeline – ya’ hate my coal train

But Gaia of mine…Why can’t you refrain?

—

Aw’ hell she’s all hot– her heat-up’s begun

Tell me, please; what do I do, hon?

Gaia my sweet, my world, my bubble

Can’t we jus’ cuddle and forget all this trouble?

—

Please honey-pie don’t trade me no wrath

Fine, whatever, show me the path

We’ll go on long hikes and mass produce bikes

We’ll de-consume junk as part of our likes

We’ll garden the road and plant trees by the ton

—

Gaia, you’ve won; you just gotta’ ask

Your bifurcation is way too fast

All that wind was unsurpassed

Gaia dear, no more surprising

Yeah I know it’s chaos rising

—

I will not leave–extinction’s too tough

Dance with me, Gaia; I promise no fluff

She’s in a huff–the  heat-up’s begun

Tell me, please; what I do, hon?

—

Okay I’m forlorn; it’s no more lies

Iron in the sea, spray crap in the skies

Gaia my sweet, why can’t I do hazy?

My yee-haw-baby, how is that crazy?

Aw’ hell she’s all hot–her heat-up’s begun

Darlin’ please…What now, hon?
