lyrics

Who is worse than greedy bankers and politicians on the take?
The government’s raining money for research, it’s my time for a lucky break
My every word is a distortion if you read between the lines
Today I dreamt up 15 new ways just to hide the decline

Hide the decline!
Hide the decline!
I’m a climatologist
Not an apologist!

In public I say ‘polar bears? Well, I’m concerned about their fate’
But if you look inside my lunchbox you’ll find polar bear steaks
I tell you all it’s getting hotter and lie about barbecue summers
But when the winter snow blows in I’m outta here in my fleet of hummers!

Hide the decline!
Hide the decline!
I’m a climatologist
A proper scientist!

What about the glaciers?
(I invented it)
What about the summertime?
(I invented it)
Stratospheric cooling?
(I invented it)
Who d’ya think you’re fooling?
(I invented it)
Ice sheets collapsing?
(I invented it)
Permafrost retracting?
(I invented it)
Carbon dioxide?
(I invented it)
Are you out of your mind?
I invented it to

Hide the decline!
Hide the decline!
I’m a climatologist
Check out my hockey stick!
