lyrics

It’s becoming pretty obvious
that nature is pissed off at us
she’s got every right to be
she gave us everything we need

but we rape her till she bleeds
and copyright the seeds
I wish the paper I wrote this song on
Was still a tree
****
This planet was a ripe and luscious fruit
But people are a mold and now it’s rotten
So please forgive us human beings
For it seems we have forgotten
That were just one small part
Of one big living ball

But were too self centered
We think we know it all

***
We’d rather have smoke than fresh air
We trade flowers for concrete and buildings where
They keep us scared and they keep us busy
They keep us fat and they keep us lazy

We are wild animals and this city’s a zoo
If that’s what you call freedom theres no hope for you

***
This planet is nothing more
Than one big organism
But we say to hell with harmony
And now its using its defense mechanism

People are just a horrible disease
The worlds shaking us off her back like a dog with fleas

****
I don’t need a Mayan calander
To tell me that the end is near
If you would unglue from your TV
It would seem pretty clear

We can’t go on like this what should we do?
I just hope the prophecies are true

***
I hope mother nature Shows her wrath
So she can be free to grow her green grass
I think the planet will make a comeback
And if people are extinct I’m okay with that

I’m absolutely disgraced with the human race
And without us here, the world will be a better place
