I still drive my car: Mercedes SLK (uh!)
I don't cry anymore, but I certainly don't fly any less
don't mind my hands getting dirty
and I don't mind your children's feet are getting wet
so I still drive that car, black leather seats, the windows down
how many other politicians and celebrities
know that 50% of Earth's animal and plant species
which we rely on for survival
face extinction
due to the destructive activities of
industrial capitalism!
yeah, that's right, fellow citizens, I said it
aren’t I brave to just come out here in front of you all
to rally us behind this cause
but I still drive my car
‘a silver beauty,’ I can hear you say
dear constituents, I promise thee
from this podium, I promise thee
if you call my office, leave a message, for your leader, me
I'll call back
I'll grab that phone
I'll park that car, I'll be that man
I'll grab that phone
I'll park that car
I'll call back
I'll grab that phone
I'll park that car
I'll be that man
I'll call back
I'll call back
