I'm Going Mental

[Verse 1] Well, when I was just a kid, we didn't worry much about the ocean I grew up in a big wide Midwest heartland, we had no notion In Nebraska, we'd take whatever heat we could get Anything to speed the shrinking of those four-foot drifts Yeah, mid-February dreams of the sweet smell of suntan lotion [Verse 2] Well, the sermons we heard spoke often of the coming fire God's will to burn it all up, would inevitably transpire Our home was not in this sphere, green and blue No, we're just here in route, we're just a-passing through Yeah, to hold on too tight would surely spark a fierce divine ire [Chorus] I'm not sentimental now, but I'm going mental and how I'll try to put it gentle as I can, I'm going mental As a man whose home is being trashed, like it's just a one-week rental I'm going mental, I'm going environmental [Verse 3] Well, in Genesis, I remember God said, "It's good" Good for living, good for loving, yeah, good for food Now our gases are burning and our toxins Yeah, they've trampled the garden like ten thousand oxen Now it's immoral, self-destructive, and just plain rude [Chorus] I'm not sentimental now, but I'm going mental and how I'll try to put it gentle as I can, I'm going mental As a man whose home is being trashed, like it's just a one-week rental I'm going mental, I'm going environmental [Verse 4] Well, since when did scientific research become satanic? Global warming and drought, no big deal, but drag queens and you're frantic Love your neighbor as you love yourself You know that means we must work together, leverage policy, leverage our wealth Make a plan, not a conspiracy-fueled panic [Chorus] I'm not sentimental now, but I'm going mental and how I'll try to put it gentle as I can, I'm going mental As a man whose home is being trashed, like it's just a one-week rental I'm going mental, I'm going environmental [Chorus] I'm not sentimental now, but I'm going mental and how I'll try to put it gentle as I can, I'm going mental As a man whose home is being trashed, like it's just a one-week rental I'm going mental, I'm going environmental [Outro] I'm going mental, environmental
