Save the planet!

"Attention dear citizen! Is your yellow recycling bin fully compliant? Weigh your trash, scan your badge, and keep a clear conscience! Climate emergency declared... Everyone in step!" ​[Verse 1] I sort my plastic bottles at four in the morning, Weighed, scanned, blurred, I'm a good urban citizen performing! We no longer have trash collectors, we take everything to the bin ourselves, While the sun bakes the human comedy on empty shelves. The Earth is four billion years old, it has known the ice ages past, But it's my yogurt pot that's going to save the light at last! The scientists shout at us: 'It's an absolute emergency!' While we slowly lose our consciousness and sight's urgency. ​[Chorus] Save the planet? Oh yes, a thousand times yes! Sort your waste, scan your life through the rainy stress! But save the children? Oh no no, not part of the plan! They cost too much in CO2, don't touch them if you can! A little 'globalist crime' to punish the bad ones all around, While we bake under the sun as scanners scan the ground! ​[Verse 2] The scholars demand a law to block out petroleum's flow, While the sun drifts away and draws its halo close, we know. They want to regulate its cycles with yet another QR code, Shift the Earth's axis or give it a terminal node! For the planet, we're ready to move mountains high, To cut off river water so the countryside stays dry... Sorry, not the countryside, but the massive data centers instead, Pumping billions of hectoliters to keep our servers fed! ​[Chorus] Save the planet? Oh yes, a thousand times yes! Sort your waste, scan your life through the rainy stress! But save the children? Oh no no, not part of the plan! They cost too much in CO2, don't touch them if you can! A little 'globalist crime' to punish the bad ones all around, While we bake under the sun as scanners scan the ground! ​[Verse 3] 'Sorting out the fools,' said a friend, would be much more efficient, For today conscience has lost its place, completely deficient! They sell us panic-driven theories about the climate's plight, While logic is drowned in the digital matrix's night. Children in misery? 'There's nothing we can do!' On the other hand, taxing your carbon is what they love to do! We are biological robots scanned from head to toe, But at least our garbage bag is sorted out just so! ​[Chorus] Save the planet? Oh yes, a thousand times yes! Sort your waste, scan your life through the rainy stress! But save the children? Oh no no, not part of the plan! They cost too much in CO2, don't touch them if you can! A little 'globalist crime' to punish the bad ones all around, While we bake under the sun as scanners scan the ground! ​[Final Outro] (Laser scanning sound, metallic voice) "CO2 quota exceeded! Please rebottle your conscience. Let's save the Earth, delete the human! Beep... Beep... Have a nice day under the sun!"
