lyrics

We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind

They're still pushing gas now
I can't believe it
Trying to milk that cash cow
When the world's gone to shit

And they're all pushing clean coal
Like it actually exists
throwing money in that hole
With no sign of an exit

We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind

Got their fossil fuel subsidies
Cos it's a corrupt system
propping up an industry
That can't go the distance

And they're pushing blue hydrogen
Claiming it's a clean fuel
It's got gas as an origin
Who are they trying to fool???

We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind

They're still trying to go nuclear
Doubting the fallout
But let's get one thing quite clear
The costs always blow out

And they draw up false goals
Pushing net zero
Grim reaper at the controls
Watch it burn like Nero

We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind

They claim that it's about jobs
Despite them being automated
But there's not gonna be jobs
On a planet that's been wasted

So the kids are on strike now
And you can't dismiss them
All you fossils take a hike now
We're changing the system

We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
We'll strike till we win, build solar, build wind
