[Intro: Lil Dicky]

What up, world? It’s your boy, just one of the guys down here. Well, I could be more specific. Uh, I’m a human, and I just wanted to, you know, for the sake of all of us earthlings out there, just wanted to say:

[Chorus]

We love the Earth, it is our planet
We love the Earth, it is our home
We love the Earth, it is our planet
We love the Earth, it is our home

[Justin Bieber]

Hi, I’m a baboon
I’m like a man, just less advanced and my anus is huge

[Ariana Grande]

Hey, I’m a zebra
No one knows what I do, but I look pretty cool
Am I white or black?

[Halsey]

I’m a lion cub, and I’m always getting licked (Meow!)

We love the Earth, it is our home
We love the Earth

Earth, it is our planet (It’s so tiny)
We love the Earth (We love the Earth), it is our home (Home)
We love the Earth, it is our planet (It is our planet)
We love the Earth, it is our home
We love the Earth

[Verse 3: Lil Dicky]

I’m a man (Hello?)

Can you hear me? (Anyone out there? Hello?)

I’ve trudged the Earth for so damn long

And still don’t know shit (What’s going on?)
I hope it’s not a simulation (Huh)

Give each other names like Ahmed and Pedro

And, yeah, we like to wear clothes, girls still look beautiful

And it covers up our human dick (Woo), eat a lot of tuna fish

But these days, it’s like we don’t know how to act

All these shootings, pollution, we under attack on ourselves

Like, let’s all just chill (Hey), respect what we built (Hey)
Like look at the internet! It’s cracking as hell

Fellas, don’t you love to cum when you have sex? (Ayy)

And I heard women orgasms are better than a dick’s (Uh)

So what we got this land for? What we gotta stand for?
Love, and we love the Earth (The Earth)

[Ariana Grande]

Oh, yeah, baby, I love the Earth

I love this planet

[Lil Dicky]

Hey, Russia, we’re cool

Hey, Asia, all of you, c’mon

Every one of you from the plains to the Sahara

Let’s come together and live

우-우-우리는 지구를 사랑해요

[Bad Bunny]
Amamos la tierra

[Kris Wu]
我们爱地球

[Outro: Lil Dicky, Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber]

(We love you, we love you)

C’mon everybody, I know we’re not all the same

But we’re living on the same Earth

(We love you, we love you)

Have you ever been to Earth?

Everyone who is listening has been to Earth, Ariana

(We love you, we love you)

We’re not making music for aliens here

Are we gonna die?

You know what, Bieber? We might die
(We love you, we love you)
I’m not going to lie to you
I mean, there’s so many people out here who don’t think Global Warming’s a real thing. You know? We gotta save this planet. We’re being stupid

Unless we get our shit together now

Released on the 19th April 2019, Lil Dicky, used Twitter to promote his new song ‘Earth”. The song was written by Benjamin Levin, David Burd, Jamil Chammas, Josh Coleman and Magnus August Høiberg. Lyrics are sung by a star studded collection of popular and much loved individuals from the music industry. The song was released three days prior to ‘Earth Day’ and is a desperate appeal that reaches out to people, inspiring them to look after their planet until it is too late. I decided to incorporate this into my research as a side note as it is an example of how the music industry is using their power to influence their fans. It also is an example of how those in popular culture are understanding their is an environmental issue that needs t be addressed.
