I kid you not, the planet’s getting hot
We might pretend it’s not, but the world is on the spot.
We’re really in the soup, and here’s the latest scoop—
We’ll soon be under water, ‘cause the planet’s getting hotter
It’s true….. Yes, it’s true……..
Whatever, ever shall we do?
Doodle-oodle-oodle, Doodle-oodle-oodle, Doodle-oodle-oodle-doo.

• It never snow; there’s no more icy floes
  The polar bears will weep
  Cause there’s no place left to sleep
  The penguin chicks are cheepin’
  While the waters quickly deepen;
  The Eskimos who shelter in their igloos simply swelter—
  They’re blue….. skiers too….
  The planet’s hot, we can’t pretend it’s not
  Whatever, ever shall we do?
  Doodle-oodle-oodle, etc….

Let’s build an ark in the Lincoln Park
We’ll build it in the dark, so we won’t attract a shark
We’ll furnish it with sails to withstand the mighty gales
We’ll sail it on the water, ‘cause the planet’s getting hotter.
We’ll float… In our boat….
The planet’s hot; we can’t pretend it’s not.
Whatever, ever can we do?
Doodle-oodle-oodle, etc

• Do not despair, there’s still some time to spare
  We’ll save the ozone layer—We can do it if we dare!
  Let’s make a resolution to BANISH all pollution
  Make a set of rules to dispense with fossil fuels,
  Let’s do… Me and you …..
  The planet’s hot, we won’t pretend it’s not—
  Let’s go and raise a hullabaloo!
  Doodle-oodle-oodle, etc..
