Is This Our Fault?

I confess to knowing shit about the weather except that bodegas jack umbrella prices 400% when the first drop drizzles, and flexible flyers suck in powder snow but can't be beat on the hard stuff (and ice). But I'm seriously worried about our environment right now. More rain? Is this because my mom drives an SUV? Because my first car was an SUV called the Jazzmobile? Because the first rule of Jazzmobile Club was that you only could listen to Tower of Power? In fairness my mom's SUV is one of those Jeep Liberty "cost-efficient SUVs," and she has a lot of kids that need to go places so the extra space doesn't hurt. I'm just saying, weather, my mom deserves better than this.

Alternatively, give Mother Nature a record deal--this is seriously the best Blind Melon parody since Weird Al murdered the little girl in the bee costume.
