mendocino’s burning - mc lars lyrics

mendocino’s burning lyrics
[intro]
mendocino’s burning and they blamed it on the blockchain
counting confirmations, watching cali going up in flames

[verse 1, mc lars]
i played san francisco show with i fight dragons
after the concert shawn fanning was having
a party on his rooftop, i was invited
you could see marin and oakland i was h*lla excited
i thanked sean for an industry that he blessed
because napster was our generation’s gutenberg press
they say fanning flipped the domino that toppled the tower
peer*to*peer file sharing had a lot of power
in the way hе decentralized music distribution
satoshi lookеd at finance had a similar solution
but where will we be in 2023?
counting confirmations, rising seas are all i see
can we fix our mistakes if we switch to proof of stake?
and if i mint an nft, will global warming escalate?
as i’m sitting in my scr*per watching california fires
is this ledger that i’m holding sending carbon levels higher?
[chorus]
(mendocino’s burning, mendocino’s burning)
mendocino’s burning and they blamed it on the blockchain
(counting confirmations, counting confirmations)
counting confirmations, watching cali going up in flames

[verse 2, mc frontalot]
you know our math is brilliant, ‘cause you can’t understand it
got you thinking that our ponzi scheme will benefit the planet
as our value gets remanded to the custody of orbit
every speculator took a look and they adored it
you can floor it. what’s one person’s gas burning, anyway?
drop inside a bucket. soar before we plummet
the landing? see, we stuck it. bounce like a springboard
up could go forever, don’t you think? and you could bring more
friends with you next time, or if you run out
try some internet strangers, fill them with doubt
how all the criticisms they’ve been hearing are the first clue
that someone’s keeping secret how all that stuff is reverse*true!
in fact, we’re good for the climate, we’re just helping
we’ll probably cure poverty on accident or something
and it doesn’t matter if our interests seem opaque
set it all on fire. anything less is a mistake

[chorus]
(mendocino’s burning, mendocino’s burning)
mendocino’s burning and they blamed it on the blockchain
(counting confirmations, counting confirmations)
counting confirmations, watching cali going up in flames
[verse 3, mc lars]
adam smith said that man is an animal that bargains
a “captain of industry” who saw a global market
look, but maybe crypto could incentive green energy
excess wind and solar could be utilized potentially

[frontalot]
yes, right! electricity no*one’s using, we’ll use that
we’ll leverage the potential energy of swelled heads in loose hats
we’ll tell feds they can move fast
or get left behind with their fiat when we move past

[lars]
and wait, hold up, do you hear that sound?
a deflationary asset might cut consumption down

[frontalot]
deflation’s fantastic, it’s like free interest on our h**rd
and the best part is you can’t partic*p*te if you’re poor

[lars]
but the corporate elite likes how everything is now
mainstream media is dying try to block the blockchain somehow

[frontalot]
sure, there’s no shortage of villains in our current dystopia
but fire season’s open, and you’re coping, so here’s hoping, y’all
[chorus]
(mendocino’s burning, mendocino’s burning)
mendocino’s burning and they blamed it on the blockchain
(counting confirmations, counting confirmations)
counting confirmations, watching cali going up in flames

[outro, beefy]
the rise of greta definitely not accident
what mother nature needed, a champion of environment
if she was my daughter, there’s no way i could be prouder
went to battle against power and then won every encounter
and she’s representing for the future we need
where we doing things for others instead of do it for greed
all it takes to make a difference is be willing to join
that’s the point
and… i’m sorry, this is supposed to be about bitcoin?
