The Last Drop

Save the last drop of oil for me!
Cause I’m gonna wanna be free
To ride in a car,
Vacation afar,
And eat vegetables from overseas.

How could that be less than fair?
What do you mean we take more than our share?
To sustain life like this,
It’d take Earth times six,
But we haven’t got five Earths to spare.

Wait! Maybe there’s a solution.
After all, we’re the chief cause of pollution.
So let’s change our ways
Like our attitude towards gays,
Stop pretending we’re the end of evolution.

We’ll harness the sun’s energy.
We’ll stop with our frenzied spending.
Make sensible choices,
And use our voices
For participatory democracy.

We’ll value the valuable.
We’ll practice sustainable.
Instead of greed, we’ll be giving,
Life will be more worth living,
And we’ll understand reasonable.

We’ll take our place among nations,
Stop guzzling petroleum from gas stations.
Then we’ll be free,
We’ll be all we can be,
And life itself will be like a vacation.
