Our world is an institution
Of environmental pollution
We choose not to care
For our future generations
And I for one am guilty
For buying the hundreds of electronic gadgets
That attracts the industries to produce like maggots

Wildlife is crying
Millions of fish are dying

Overloaded brains

While the river break their banks
And greedy industries play their polluted pranks.
