stonewall - go to bat
unless you want to live like that
stonewall - can't we see
we're our own worst enemy
a land said to have all, wealth in land, in man
qualities soon to exhaust as man's greed poisons the land
streams, once fresh, were centres of life for so many a creature
beauty without defence, polluted, never to replenish
collage, blue and green, seen as golden industrial sites
smudge as toxic pollutants destroy her remaining rights
the power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
it's time to listen, and see the signs
it's time to listen and hear her cries
the one that gave us life is being burnt to the raw
reaping unprotected riches, human nature's self-destruction flaw
the power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
A song that connects environmental destruction and pollution with the chase for profits by corporations. If there is no kind of postmaterialistic moral or aesthetic attitude towards nature, Corporations will keep on classifying the relatively small fines and charges for pollution as a trifling sum of their expenses in their budget and not as a pressure for conforming to the environmental laws.
you can hear this song in youtube
