related lyrics: 
Lawn chairs sinking in the thunda* tundra
Afford an arctic view of diminishing returns
For peats sake and carbon if I do 
I’ll take two tickets for the northern passage
Open return by air mattress as levels rise
Upended ice bergs left leaning all akimbo
Northern polar wear for warming bears
Or two times tanned in tropical acetone
When rain on steroids rewards more errant flames
Fooled forensics fuels free association with all truth
Zoonotic or robotic these flu shots swigged like tonic
I’ll put on the profusion and raid the radiation.
What’s not too climate? what’s not fair change?
