lyrics

Soon we won't have any earth to stand on,
Which is great for the fish,
Except the coral reefs are bleached,
We've got nothing left to eat,
Soon every island nation,
With a low elevation,
Will be swept into the sea,
To become a distant memory,

You see we never fix the problem,
We just keep on adding tape,
But how much can it take,
Before the seal decides to break?
And we're good at breaking records,
And breaking ice off the icebergs,
Washing sand away from the Maldives,
And washing bloodstains from our hands,

We're the island president,
Turned Kevin Costner,
And this is the water world,
We're searching for a land,
That's tattooed on a girl,
Sixty foot trimaran,
Above the cities that we sank,
Above the tombs of whom we thank,
