Swallowed too many mass media masquerades To believe everything that’s fed to me Polarization in convictions causing fog on a clear view Still in doubt, I can’t decide which side true Still in doubt, I can’t decide which side true What can we believe? Who’s telling the truth? We don’t have the knowledge to decide About who’s wrong or who is right Is global warming threatening us? Existence of the earth in danger? Are media and politicians blinding us? Or can we rely on their information? Can we afford to take a chance? Risk to deny the problem? Think it’s part of natural cycle? And time will solve the problem? Wouldn’t it be better, for safety’s sake To change the way we live, adapt the way we act And take certainty above an uncertainty Certainty above an uncertainty Wouldn’t it be better, for safety’s sake To change the way we live, adapt the way we act There are enough clues and indications There’s really something wrong So the choice is ours Lose the earth in apathy Or open our eyes, now close to the heat Certainty above an uncertainty? Certainty above an uncertainty? Do you want to ask yourself why In about twenty years time Why it took more than All Gore’s plea To kick our conscience and make us see That the meagring of the earth Was an omen of catastrophe Do you want to ask yourself why In about twenty years time Why it took more than All Gore’s plea To kick our conscience and make us see The prophet of doom Spreading the inconvenient truth Not a trivial message But an omen of catastrophe
After Al Gore came out with his documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’, global warming became ‘hot’ in the media. We got flooded by scientific reports trying to persuade us to join one of the different conceptions on this climatological problem. Is the heating of the earth mainly a consequence of human actions or is it Mother Earth having one of her mood swings? At this point I still don’t know which vision is accurate; most of us don’t have the knowledge to decide about who’s wrong and who is right. ‘Global warming’ isn’t the only topic on which we can’t be sure what to believe. Are our politicians and media still reliable? They have a big hand in our opinion, but their information is often colored and incomplete so what can we believe? The sample in this song is build out of quotes from ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ & its opponent ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’. Who’s right?
