LYRICS
First one fell
Oh, well
This is hell?
Fare thee…
Scarcity
Forget about variety
Pales in comparison
Stale’s new companion
The dream of thrive
Is barely alive
Now we strive
Just to stay alive
First one fell
Oh, well?
What the heck
Knocked the next
Second fell
Just as well?
This is hell
Fare thee…
Another down
Come sing around
Another down
Come sing around
Another down
Come sing around
Pales in comparison
Stale’s new companion
The dream of thrive
Is barely alive
Now we strive
Just to stay alive
Human induced climate change is an exponential component of an unordered system (chaos theory). That means global warming is accelerating at a rapid rate in a complex way. Humans have caused chain-reactions resulting in domino-effects, snowball effects, and feedback loops. This song is about the first domino falling… starting the chain-reaction of falling dominoes. Tipping points are similar to falling dominoes, and feedback loops are similar to a snowball rolling down a hill. So part of the climate change formula might look something like this:
the domino effect * the snowball effect:
