Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
We love you, we hear you
We commit to change our ways
Not later, but sooner
Right now for your future
Youth can’t wait - Put out the fire
Women can’t wait - Put out the fire
Planet can’t wait - Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
For our children - Put out the fire
And their children - Put out the fire
And their children - Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
For songbirds, for clean air
For the oceans and the bays
Not later, but sooner
Right now, for our future
Melting glaciers - Put out the fire
Rising seas - Put out the fire
Bleaching coral - Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
Shrinking shorelines - Put out the fire
Sinking islands - Put out the fire
Growing drylands - Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
Let bees live
Let trees grow
Let the snowfall where it may
Not later, but sooner
Right now, for the future
We are here to - Put out the fire
This is how we - Put out the fire
Time is now we - Put out the fire
Our house is on fire
