Silly Jane

(álbum: Extinction Ballads - 2021)

Went out to a protest on the strand
A young girl held a sign above her head
That read
You will die of old age
And we will die of climate change
Her parents stayed at home and washed their hands
They said

Oh that silly Jane
She's trying to change the world again
Oh that silly Jane
She's trying to change our minds again

When all is said and done
More is said than done

Freedom ain't a choice with which you're born
To love and to be loved is to be scorned
I wanna see the world some day
Before it all starts to decay
Does that just make me part of the problem?

I don't need a battleship to get my point across

When all is said and done
More is said than done
When all is said and done
(We're at the point of devolution)
More is said than done

But then she showed me love
But then she showed me hate
But then she showed me hope
Yeah things turned out just great

I don't need a battleship to get my point across

Oh that silly Jane
She's trying to change the world again
Oh that silly Jane
She's trying to change our minds again

When all is said and done
(We're at the point of devolution)
More is said than done
(Midst a personal demolition)
When all is said and done
(We're at the point of devolution)
More is said than done

But then she showed me love
But then she showed me hate
But then she showed me hope
Yeah things turned out just great
