Billy Bragg
King Tide And The Sunny Day Flood
Wouldn't it be wonderfulIf we could save the world and allSimply by collecting upTin cans and empty bottlesWe all want to believe it's trueBut it don't matter what you doSo long as we continue toBurn our way through fossilsNow it should come as no surpriseTo learn about the ocean's riseThe polar caps are meltingWith every year that the planet warmsNow people have to understandWe're going to feel it far inlandIt's going to shift the seasonsAnd super-charge the stormsKing Tide is a-comingKing tide is a-comingKing tide is a-comingBringing flooding on a sunny dayKing tide is a-comingCan't you hear the melt waters running?King time is a-comingGoing to sweep everything awayAnd you knowThe oceans they connect us allLetras de cancionesNo one can just build a wallWe have to work togetherWe can't do this on our ownTo think that you can stand asideIs nothing more than foolish pride‘Cause everyone's a libertarianUntil the brown water floods their homeNow you may live on higher groundFeeling like you're safe and soundThinking as you look aroundThis is your lucky dayBut everyone beneath the skySoon be looking for somewhere high and dryAnd nothing you can ever doWill keep them all at bayKing tide is a-comingKing tide is a-comingKing tide is a-comingBringing flooding on a sunny dayKing tide is a-comingCan't you hear the melt waters running?King tide is a-comingGoing to sweep everything awayThe King tide is a-comingAnd we have to act today
