wasting time and wasting food 
D9    
wondering what the heck to do 
  A6                                                         E9

But the green you talk's just money or it's snot (snot, get it?)
Bm                                                       E
You drag your feet but tell kids "don't complain"
               C#m                                        F#7#5
While dooming us to certain climate change
                   B7
But we're done with your confusion
                        B9
And the time for talking's done
F
We've found the best solution

And all y'all are doing is DEBATE
A6
Having meetings at the Hague
D9
and talks at the UN
E9                                                A6
While our KIDS are sick of being told to wait

     A6
