Well at first we’ll be warm but we’ll all be in the sea
Your house flooded to your bare knee
Just a second to decide what to rescue as you flee
Those purple gloves
From the flood rising past your bare knee
So the third thing to take is a thermos full of tea
Plus odds and ends
Those purple gloves
And a map showing all the new sea
By the 4th year you know this is how it’s going to be
Free floating turds
Old odds and ends
Those purple gloves
Missing map never mind it’s all sea
In the 5th year your home is a giant redwood tree
Man has grown wings
Still the floating turds
But you have
Lovely purple gloves
And a view of the sparkly blue sea
In the 12th year of warming we’ll look around and see
12 Snorkels spouting
11 Mountains melting
10 Divas diving
9 Countries quaking
8 Rascals rowing
7 Fellows flying
6 Girlies gliding
Man has grown wings
Caught the falling birds
Found fish friends
Different ways to love
And to live on a boiling blue sea
