Good Guys

Human activity has damaged the planet throughout history - can we turn it around and be the good guys?

PARODY OF

Bad Guy by Billie Eilish

MUSIC BY

Richie Webb

FROM

Series 9 Episode 3 (Precious Planet)

LYRICS:

Our planet

We should see the signs

We're damaging

It over time

History we

Must now rewind

To undo our mistakes

Romans reared loads of livestock

For farming

Which released methane

From farting

Plus blacksmith forgers

Were harming

The atmosphere

So you're a Roman

Sounds like you had no plan

Shame you didn't know, man

But you were just the first man

That's pretty bad, guys

(Huh?)

Tudors building warships

Out of forests

They stripped the land leaving

No trees

Wasn't a blip because

It is still happening

So you're a Tudor

Shame you didn't think more

Taking all that wood for

Ships to go and fight wars

That's pretty bad, guys

(Huh?)

Industrial Revolution

An increase in

Air pollution

Machines built with

No solution

For our longevity

Black gold, life

Changed forever

Makes plastic

Degrades, like, never

And fumes that

Are not so clever

So it's time to think again

It's got to end now

Listen to my friend while

Great comprehends how

We can make a change now

Be a kind guy

Cleaning up the seas guy

Planting lots of trees guy

Power from the breeze guy

Let's be the good guys...
