Mulling questions for debate
There's so much silliness around
Daft pettifogging gets me down.
The Planet suffers at our hands;
Much is wrong - the fault is Man's
Nature's balance is upset
Fires and storms are the worst yet.
Flights criss-cross our troubled skies
Think off-shore tax evasion size
It's wear-and-chuck, not wear-and-mend
Why save when you can Spend! Spend! Spend!
More homeless haunt our dirty streets
Mass mobile phones mean no one meets
Another's eyes and starts a chat
Making friends? Forget all that!
Most leaders lack real gravitas
Pursuing interests more crass
Who can we look up to, admire?
Such stats predict a future dire...
