Notes

Lyrics

Now is the time to realize
We got a monkey on our back
We're addicted to oil
We're addicted to coal
And worst of all
We're addicted to waste

We've talked about our problem
For over thirty years
But every single day it gets
Worse and worse

We've made up lots of reasons
To wait another day
But every day we wait
It gets harder and harder
To kick the habit

We know it will be painful
We know it won't be fun
We know there's no avoiding it
We know it must be done
But we keep avoiding the pain

It's time to
Bite the bullet
Cause this might hurt a little
Bite the bullet
Get ready for the pain
Bite the bullet
Cause this might hurt a little more

The problems are real
And serious
And we're running out of time

We're addicted to oil
We're addicted to coal
And worst of all
We're addicted to waste

How do we find the solution to
All the problems that we've made

We gotta look to the sun
And the atom too
And the creative power
Of the human mind
