We're still in the middle of the iceage. Every 20,000 years or so, the Earth wobbles on its axis, titls away from the sun, and starts a new glaciation. We're overdue for our next big freeze.

Story behind the song
I saw a special on the Discovery chanel about the iceage, called Ice World. Very informative.
Lyrics
Two and a half million years ago The Ismuth of Panama Rose up from the ocean floor And changed how the currents flow Tropical heat and moisture Diverted north in the Gulfstream Brought polar precipitation And made the icecap grow (chorus a) You know the iceage never ended But the whole world has pretended That it weathered out the storm Because everything feels warm So now the Greenhouse Effect is misleading Because the whole world, it is heating And the ice caps are retreating But this warm weather is fleeting 24,000 years ago The Earth wobbled on its axis Tilted away from the sun And started a new age of snow All across the northern world Glacial ice sheets miles thick Froze the lands and chilled the air And killed everything that grows (chorus b) An endless cycle of freezing and thawing Modern civilizaton was dawning The end of hunter-gatherer life Settled living was right for the times Every day the nights would grow colder Winters were longer and Summers were shorter The competition was getting bold Driven by the biting cold End of the age of Neanderthals End of wooly mammoths too End of the welsh rhinocerous They had no where to go The ingenuity of mankind Allowed our ancestors to survive In the harshest climes on Earth With never ending snow (chorus a) (chorus b) (chorus a) (chorus b)
