Infantile

 

Preach to us about global warming.

Tell us to show restraint. Ask that we

enjoy the games, but to do so sustainably.

keep your footprints low

For if you don’t the icecaps will melt,

the oceans will grow,

and our watered down sporting spectacle

will be a wash out before you know.

 

Now, a word from our advertisers

disguised as an "hydration break",

need to be in two places at once

then take one of our hight tech super jets.

It will only cost the lives of millions.

 

I hear the rushing torrents, a tsunami of rage,

as the world sinks below the ever-growing waves.

A watered down grave.

 

So, Mr Infantino, how can you justify

being at three games in one night,

across borders, thousands of miles of fuel

burnt in flight, you are probably

eating dodo as well just to give that extra evil sheen.

We are not fooled by the lies

choking the atmosphere on the shit that you spout.

Those air miles don’t grow on trees.

Could you not sit at home, watching on tv,

like the rest of us peasant scum, or is this society

below you in your tower of ivory.

 

Advertising break 3072...

Hey Bud, not to make Light

of your plight, but crack open a bottle

and all will feel alright.

Amazon want you to pour your money

into their warehouse economy,

Coca Cola poisoned the wells.

Whilst south of the border

a rainforest is destroyed,

all in the name of McDonald's beef.

Hell, we are just chicken feed

to corporate greed.

 

But whilst you may now have

money to burn, as the advertising fees

come rolling in, and whilst some

have been turned away at the

amazon fire churned bill gates of hell,

because Mr Trump doesn’t like

the colour of their skin,

or where they were born, we should

just chill. Relax.

It’s okay if a few people

are attacked, as long as the money

is falling in and landing in our laps.

 

You push sustainability

whilst flying in constant luxury,

one rule for we, another for thee.

Well, the world is the same for you and me.

Even musk doesn't yet have

an intergalactic hideaway.

That we know of.

If it gets fucked

then we all end in the sea.

 

I hope you can swim.
