Viewing lyrics for The Names by Andrew Espin.

Composed for my Music Tech A-level using a poem: "Names" by Brian Moses

My name is “couldn’t care less”,
Just let the forests die.
My name is “Can’t be bothered”,
Who cares about holes in the sky?

My name is “I’m too busy”,
Let someone else do the worrying,
There’s nothing that I can do
If the ice caps are wearing thin.

My name is “Leave me alone”,
Just don’t go preaching to me.
Gossip is what I care about
Not oil that’s spilt in the sea.

Who cares about global warming,
I like a spot of hot weather.
My name is “Sit on the fence”,
My name is “All of a dither”.

So stop saying what I should think,
I don’t want to believe what I’m told.
My name is “Hope it will go away”,
My name is “Don’t get involved”.

And who do you think you are,
Telling us all we should worry?
WELL, MY NAME’S A WARNING FROM FUTURE YEARS,
IT’S “LISTEN UP OR YOU’LL BE SORRY”.
