The Dragon of Climate Change

There once was a terrible dragon Whose name was Climate Change He slept atop a mountain As he'd done for an age 'Til the king made the poor Mine the mount for gold The dragon gave a scary roar And out of bed he rolled Lo! The dragon of climate change hath come But slay the beast named greed, and that dragon will be done The king lied to the peasants He blamed the dragon on them And sold them pointless weapons So he could casheth in But when flames razed the town The folk saw through his scheme 'Tis a wood house the dragon burns But not your stone keep Lo! The dragon of climate change hath come But slay the beast named greed, and that dragon will be done The king summoned a mage He said would end this chapter He promised the town a spell called Direct Air Carbon Capture It could keep the dragon away While the gold forever grew But soon they found out the mage Was just the king's court fool Lo! The dragon of climate change hath come But slay the beast named greed, and that dragon will be done The people marched from town On horse the king fled The dragon saw his shiny crown And barbecued his head Folk shared the kingdom's riches So they had all they need The dragon's home was left alone So he could get some sleep Lo! The dragon of climate change was done But beware the beast named greed or he won't be gone for long
