lyrics

I Should Care

I wanna make a fur coat for my girlfriend Janet
From the last polar bear left alive on the planet
Scratch 'em from the endangered species list
If you want good sushi, let me man it
We'll eat the last bluefin tuna on the planet
The one the Japanese missed last time they fished

How can I be more succinct?
You know it ain't my fault if they go extinct
Progress must progress I hope you see
I can't be any less distinct
Nature's buggy and dirty and it usually stinks
What'd the ecosystem ever do for me?

I mean besides clean water and besides fresh air
Besides resources with a lot to spare
Besides less disease of the derriere
OK, I get, I should care

I wanna get the horn from the last black rhino
An aphrodisiac, well, Hell if I know
The Chinese say it'll make me more of a man
I heard the same about tigers' balls
Let's get a gun and go shoot 'em all
Important mystical beliefs, you must understand

Seven billion people ain't enough
We need more land so cough it up
Besides, this wi-fi world don't need no trees
If you're not a cow, a sheep or a pig
There's no room for you, ya dig?
Join the dinosaurs and just cease to be
