Marcus von Rittberg - Greta | Molly Malone's L.A. 10/05/19

I was very moved after watching the 15 year old climate activist Greta Thunberg speak in front of the UN so I decided to write a song for her.

I saw you speaking on TV.
You sounded just like AOC
Travelled far, now in New York
Remind me of a younger Bjork
You wrote a speech for the UN
It’s our leaders you’ll condemn
You don’t believe our EPA
Laugh at leaders with toupees
You’re only 15, an old soul
Foretell our future that they stole
Ice breaking apart
Blue, then it turns dark
Keep speaking your mind and heart
When will we listen to sea shells?
When will we leave behind black wells?
Who will take the meat off the grill?
The waiter’s near, no one here to pay the bill
On Fridays you don’t go to school
Stand outside and teach the fools
Don’t really care if you’re en vogue
Not a pleaser, you’re a rogue
You say they’re keeping us at bay
Your signal’s clear, Mayday Mayday
You didn’t come to play with words
The natives call you thunderbird
And where there’s thunder, there’s a bolt
You’re leading on this huge revolt
Ice breaking apart
Blue, then it turns dark
Keep speaking your mind and heart
When will we listen to sea shells?
When will we leave behind black wells?
Who will take the meat off the grill?
The waiter’s near, no one here to pay the bill

Thanks for listening. I'm glad you dig it! I'll be recording and mixing it in January and releasing it short after.
