There is no God but Gaia
The Earth is getting hotter, and the seas will drown us all;
The Earth is desiccating, and the rains will never fall;
The desert is expanding, and none of us can stop it;
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
The desert is expanding, and none of us can stop it;
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
Albert preaches sternly that the planet soon will die;
You must change your way of living, for the Albert would not lie.
But as to Albert’s own high living, he will never stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
You must change your way of living, for the Albert would not lie.
But as to Albert’s own high living, he will never stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
Sacrifices must be placed upon our Gaia’s altar;
Killing virgins will not work, but you should never falter.
The sin is greenhouse gases; you must work to stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
Agriculture’s doomed, because the crops will never grow,
Except for GM crops, of course, and those you’d best not sow;
Eating kills the planet, which is why that you must stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
Driving cars has got to stop to hold down CO2,
No matter if it ends the jobs performed by such as you.
Your breath’s a greenhouse gas, so get on board and stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
Cap and trade will shut us down, destroying what we've built;
Embracing that's a dandy way to mitigate our guilt;
Don't plan to keep on living; you have surely got to stop it,
For there is no god but Gaia, and the Albert is her prophet.
