GRETA THUNBERG
She’s in a room of suits and ties on men of twice her size
She opens her eyes and all the truth comes out
She don’t act cute, she doesn’t smile
Bores right through Denial Mountain, her tunnel lets the air rush in
And every time I hear her speak, the water hits my cheek
Insanity breaks and things make sense again
And so her wish is my command, this full-grown man just has to
Follow the lead of a little girl
Obey the girl
What did I do to let her through, how did I make myself an
Instrument tuned so when she plucks I ring?
How can I find an orchestra that’s big enough to play the
Symphony she can hear inside her head?
She’s not just young, she’s also old and when she scolds
I hear a mother echo, I hear a grandmother
A line of women stretching back into the cave and yelling
Wake up, this fire’s gonna burn our world
Obey the girl
Soft swaying dark filled with vanishing eyes
Leviathans whose number makes her cry
Grant her safe passage, wild whales
Hold her, send wind to fill her sails
Great rising blue, reach the brim of her heart
We’re in a room of ABCs and 123s, the man says,
“Take some looseleaf and put your name on it
Now write this test and do your best cause if you fail you’re gonna
Wind up in jail or on the filthy street!”
But nature calls, the voice is small inside your head
It’s like the itch of a kid, she wanna go outside
And there’s a tree that you can see from in your seat
You smell its flowers and leaves beginning to unfurl
Obey the girl
