Bright Future Lyrics by Baba Brinkman

2020

[Verse 1]
Bright future
Blackout, blackout, too late to back out
From New York City to Krakow, no turnin’ back now
We demand infinite power that never taps out
And the shutting of all fossil fuel smoke stacks down
Don’t forget to ask “how”
Use every single tool
Got that solar bling on my roof
All of my neighbours are thinkin’ its cool
Renewables are beautiful
Get them connected to every cottage
But the crucible is: can they get us city-level wattage?
Ten percent, maybe twеnty five
Until the wind power diеs
No flow from a hydro reservoir that a drought has dried
The sun sets under cloudy skies
Out of sight out of mind
Old king coal comes out at night
Sunrise capacity surges, crashin’ the circuits
Batteries would be perfect
It’s too bad they don’t work yet
Plus the cost of purchase
It straight up doubles the pesos
So again with the fossil fuel
Steppin’ up to cover the base-load

[Chorus]
Commuter
Sky polluter
Ride my scooter
Climate movement
Computer
WiFi booster
Fly juicer
HiFi music
Clean energy means everything, everything
Bright future
Clean energy means everything
Bright future

[Verse 2]
So here we go, yo
Whatsa, whatsa, whatsa scenario?
The carbon footprint is low in France and Ontario
The way they chose to carry the load is scary to folks
But the resulting quality of life there is very dope
Look at what they did in Sweden, low emission Sweden
Took the power grid and cleaned it safely
Ask a physics teacher
Fifty years of nuclear waste fits in a single arena
And nature is more radioactive, check a dosimeter reader
Carcinogenic coal ash kills half a million people every single year
After leavin’ ‘em feelin’ a lil wheezy
Replace particulate coal with fission and breathe easy
Some people will get a little heated
But I don’t give a millisievert
You want to fight climate change?
Fight nuclear decommissions
Replace fission with fossil fuel and you increase emissions
Keep that clean efficient energy in the system
How is that politically divisive?

[Chorus]
Commuter
Sky polluter
Ride my scooter
Climate movement
Computer
WiFi booster
Fly juicer
HiFi music
Clean energy means everything, everything
Bright future
Clean energy means everything
Bright future

[Verse 3]
Abundance
That’s what happens when everything functions
One billion people today still have nothin’ to plug in
Every third of a second another one comes in
No judgment
Just take the power production number today and double it
Now every solar panel planned is just keepin’ up with new demand
Burn baby burn, another natural gas plant
The air is a trash can for fossil fuel when you’re burnin’ it
But frack that, we have a zero carbon alternative
That’s so radioactive, you can’t discuss it calmly
A nuclear reaction to a sensible energy policy
I’m afraid of a meltdown, but only psychologically
In response to a technology that produces juice constantly
Is it dangerous? Compared to what, fairy dust?
It’s safer than other major energy production areas
Climate change is scary enough
Even with various solutions at play
Take one of the biggest away
And it’s gonna bury us

[Chorus]
Commuter
Sky polluter
Ride my scooter
Climate movement
Computer
WiFi booster
Fly juicer
HiFi music
Clean energy means everything, everything
Bright future
Clean energy means everything
Bright future
