Green Is The New Brown

H.L. Mencken "The urge to save humanity is always a
false front for the urge to rule it."

( Bridge )
Not in power at this time
but looking all the same,
A designer suit with tailored words
ignoring the truth and knowing no shame,
Still lining their pockets
not in power but oh so close,
Still making promises
recycling garbage as I hold my nose

Looking for a carbon footprint
all I hear is tapping,
Dancing around questions
we should be asking,
Like where's the evidence
or what's the cost,
Maybe more importantly
what ethical lines were crossed

( chorus )
The green dye will always fade
to the truest shade of brown,
Private jets to flights of fancy
inconventiently
no truth found,

Looking for a carbon footprint
all I hear are sad groans,
The so-called leaders whine
sadly they are not alone,
Goose stepping through the debates
giving the media pitch forks and torches,
Drowning out all opposition
" Earth First " is a policy that scorches

( chorus )
The green dye will always fade
to the truest shade of brown,
Private jets to flights of fancy
inconventiently
no truth found,

Looking for a carbon footprint
yet all I see are hooves,
This green sheep army in SUV's
off to promote their paperback books,
Meanwhile dying at the box office
a film that was promoted well,
Something about the end is near
when we can see it just doesn't sell

( chorus )
The green dye will always fade
to the truest shade of brown,
Private jets to flights of fancy
inconventiently
no truth found,

Looking for a carbon footprint
wary of the quick sand,
They keep losing all ground
yet many fail to understand,
It's ok to be concerned
it's another to jump to conclusions
When you have no proof
it is just more noise pollution

( chorus )
The green dye will always fade
to the truest shade of brown,
Private jets to flights of fancy
inconventiently
no truth found.
