If EL NIرO and LA NIرA had a Kid

If EL NIرO and LA NIرA had a kid
There would be such horrible weather, may God forbid
The Earth would not see such a terrible storm
The ice caps would melt and new oceans would form
There would be more cyclones and worse hurricanes
Houses would collapse and the weather would destroy weather vanes
Tsunamis would hit every shore
They’d seem to peak but then there’d be more
And that’s when the heat wave starts
People would sweat so much they’ll deodorize their private parts
We’ll use so much electricity we’ll run out of power
And the water too so we’ll have to share during our shower
The Ozone hole will triple, as the future will show
People will walk around with an ultra-violet glow
“What about our air?” You need to ask
You’ll need to filter out the soot with a surgical mask
And to add to the problems are the volcanic eruptions
Which dirty up our air and cause weather disruptions
I don’t see the problem ending soon
It will be common place to experience a super typhoon
Livestock would die and we’ll experience hunger
It won’t be the same weather we had when we were younger
You know all those harsh climate movies, where they’d be in big trouble?
Well this will be reality and it will be double!
The weather will be hot one moment and the next it will be freezing
People will get sick and would be constantly sneezing
Humans would become savages; it would be a disgrace
As a species we’ll no longer be the dominant race
The world would be covered in desert sand
And camels would be the ones to rule the land
This vision of a climate gone bad is valid
We will mostly be eating cactus salad
Everyone will be starving, including you
In order to store energy from the food you ate you’ll hold in your poo
If you find bananas you’ll also eat the peels
Then you’ll know how a starving person feels
But you know what feels the worst?
When drinking water is scarce and you’ll suffer from thirst
We’ll have to start sending colonies to the moon
If we can’t do anything about the environment soon
We have a bleak future as the dominant mammal
We’ll have to give way to the age of the humped back camel
For the camel the Earth would be the perfect sandy place
While the only home left for humans is outer space
It’s good to have the moon as our future address
There will be no storms and fat people will weigh less
And there will be plenty to eat
As long as you don’t mind all the camel meat
We should live safely in our moon home
Our only worry is if meteors crack the dome
You’d think our lives there would be as good as new
But the way things are going we’ll most likely destroy that too
