Earth
EARTH
Humanity, you’re blowing this
Good planets, hard to find
Insanity to wipe us out
To earn another dime
No use it is to build a house
Upon a dying land
We live upon a warming earth
Why don’t we understand?
- Unless we govern for the earth
- Then all shall perish from her
- Unless we waken from our dream
- Awaken from our slumber
For you can say the river stinks
Or you can clean the stream
For there are those who do their part
And you can join the team
If we must change our leadership
To save the world we share
Then lift your banner high in hand
And wave it everywhere
– By how we treat our critters
– And by the land we scar
– By how we treat our beaches
– You’ll know just who we are
– When growing to be growing
– That is what cancer does
– Be not a cancer on earth
– That is what’s best for us

OK… this might be my fav, lyrically, of yours. i'm right with you. Good tune-age, too. If you want to get fired up, check out what Polymet Mines may be allowed to do in northern Mn, right in the middle of one of the largest freshwater sheds in the world. Unbelievable that it's even being considered. Been to the meetings… its a real possibility.
