I don't breathe the air, I drink the smog
Antecedents didn't care, things to flog
Money or health, we chose the economy
The price paid was environmental sodomy
The rich raped the land and we stood by
Stopping them? We didn't even try
Nothing is free, that rich saying is true
And eventually that global bill came due
But the wealthy didn't pay, they seldom do
They built huge indoor complexes and withdrew
Complete outdoor beauty, in a giant housed bubble
Pay the entry and you can escape the world's trouble
The entry is painted, with a man and a girl too
Playing with a flower, a reminder that they once grew
Remember: The rich will ALWAYS have it better than you
