Lyrics
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm one man what can one man do?
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
The truth is inconvenient, to our funny little lifestyles
Mother Earth on the brink, what you think can happen then is now
So I make my pen my pal, I make amends with style
To reach a mile a minute, through the
Frequencies of underground lieutenants
I take myself accountable, every atom in my make up
So every day that I wake up, gotta try to raise the stakes up
In the last days we take up space and fumigate with carbon
Dioxide, harbor hate and then it's off to mobbin'
Saddle back in your black Cadillac SUV you fly
Butterfly effect, who am I to check, throwing trash at the sky
I'm a little bug and a can of Raid is pointed in my eyes
Being a man means not giving a fuck to live or die
As the summer spans longer the ocean kisses the horizon line
Day after tomorrow is coming quicker than we can finalize
Island man standing on the deck of Noah's Ark and we sinking fast
Thinking if we just all did our part then we could make it back
Turn off the lights, don't turn up the heat
Recycle that can, don't fill up the streets
Buy customized tennis, buy old diesel Mercedes Benz we can make amends
Turning back the clock by the way we walk
Or else we'll feel it when we hear the wind
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, tell me what can one man do?
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, tell me what can one man do?
I'd rather be a tree hugger, than a mean mugger
Let's do it green, can't laugh at me sucker
It's a sunny December and my jacket's off
L.A. to the Bay, flights for less than it costs to drive
Still alive, but I seen crows fall from the sky
Pleasant Valley death, was it the
Budweiser plant, or back alley breath?
Actually it was a collective decision to not attend the rally
And so we didn't know, just kept living low
It's big enough to pass planets, started as a pigeon hole
And now Rio can't play in the sun
Because people just sprayin' their guns
In some way, shape, or form it's a war on the world
A new day to perform, let's do more than talk
There used to be snow on top
Now you got that dough in your pocket but you're too fat to walk
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, tell me what can one man do?
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, tell me what can one man do?
Piss yellow evergreens, but still we never think
Let the cars drink, what the war is for?
There'll be more whores like Mother Nature, yeah right
Strip her of her beautiful accessories
Who needs bald eagles anyway?
We got vinyl windows and plenty to say
Your throat is a fucking exhaust pipe, homie
And I'm a walking contradiction cause
I drive an SUV in the carpool lane
Do you know what cow shit alone does to the water
Supply just so you could eat burgers and fries?
Hate to spill the beans, philistines
But he who dies with the most stuff does not win the game
He just dies, and what remains non-physical
For the rest of us is much more valuable
So don't be an overconsuming American asshole
If you gotta be an asshole, at least use recycled paper products
Damn, and that ain't even scratching the surface
But I don't wanna try to get all poetic
We all know better, bottom line
Show some discipline, it's time
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, what can one man do?
Rivers run dry, but there's no lines on his brow
Says he doesn't care who say
I'm only one man, what can one man do?
