Hi everyone, if anyone cares to comment on this lyric, any and all comments will be appreciated. Thank you

"No One Cared"
Words By Tom Tognaci

V1
God spoke to Noah—and he understood.     
But the people would not listen—     
calling him crazy where he stood.       

Pre-Chorus 1
Noah warned them of a great flood:         
"Help me build this ark of wood—           
Help me and have faith that your family will be spared."     
As they laughed and spat the ground...       

Chorus line 1
...No one cared.             
(Spoken word: And we all know how that turned out)

V2
Back in 1912, a champagne bottle broke the bow, 
And it was deemed "unsinkable," 
Which raised some uneasy eyebrows.

Pre-Chorus 2
Warnings came of icebergs en route, 
Which the crew laughed off as moot. 
In their arrogance, the great ship went unprepared, 
As the band played its swan song... 

Chorus line 2
...No one cared.
(Spoken word: And we all know how that turned out, as well)

V3
There burns a new fire, one from cyberspace 
One not passed down from the Heavens 
But claims to help the human race 

Pre-Chorus 3
Poets warn of a great downfall 
Clergy fear what the mystics saw 
As the world falls in line, too enlightened to be scared 
The signs were all around us... 

Chorus line 3
... But no one cared
(Spoken word: And one day, in the not-so-distant future, so many will go unaware with how this all turns out.)

Good stuff here. 👏
I'm sure you cam pull it off with a production.
I've at times drawn on bible stories for themes. Those stories still resonate.

Here, of course you divert.

I'm not sure what 3rd part is referring to. I'll work it out if I get yo hear it.
