The Copenhagen song for Climate Change

Wonderful Wonderful Copenhagen (apologies to Danny Kaye)

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Hosting the Climate change Ball
'Neath a burning light
in a world turned shite
the politicians will do fuck all

In wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
trying to be admirably green
but the rich countries control
the size of the sky’s hole
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Danish bacon for me

We have Obama Barack
with Republicans on his back
Saying don’t give carbon away for free
As they stand under the burning tree
But they’ve welcomed the chance to see
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Friendly old place to the rich
and for the third world plight
On this merry night
we say sorry but life’s a bitch
Oh wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Let’s ignore what the experts say
As long as we get paid
And possibly laid
the climate is welcome to stay

Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen soon to be under the sea.
