Bill Shontz - Hole in the Ozone lyrics

Woke up, got up Put some cocoa in my cup Same way I do every day And then just for fun I turned the radio on To hear what the newsman had to say After bad news, sad news National and local news I thought it couldn't get any worse But then the newsman told me 'Bout the ozone hole, he said "This could mean the end of Earth" So I said to myself, I said "Self, you gotta get outta here!" 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! Dial nine-one-one I've got to tell someone These ultra-violet rays Are burning me Call the firemen, The President The Army, Navy, Air Force And Marines 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! Bags packed, roof racked Thought I wasn't comin' back I'd find a cave and hide from the sun But then I realized With a hole in the sky This size, there was nowhere to run Man, that burst my bubble I was in deep trouble If I could, I'd catch a rocket to Mars We can't fly there yet, So with deep regret, I unpacked and got back out of my car And I said to myself, I said "Self, you gotta do something!" 'Cause there a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! Dial nine-one-one I've got to tell someone These ultra-violet rays Are burning me Call the firemen, The President, The Army, Navy, Air Force And Marines 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! I wrote a letter to my senator, Said it's a disaster I didn't know which way to turn And I did not feel better When I got a form letter Addressed "To whom it may concern" It said, "Me and my buddies Say the problem needs more study Twenty years should do the trick So air conditioning's OK Use those aerosol sprays Fill out this questionnaire If you get sick So I said to myself, I said "Self, you gotta write a song and tell somebody!" 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! Dial nine-one-one I've got to tell someone These ultra-violet rays Are burning me Call the firemen, The President, The Army, Navy, Air Force And Marines 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone Get me to the red phone This is an emergency! 'Cause there's a hole in the ozone That's growin' and growin' Hey, this is a catastrophe!
