Our Earth Was Once Green
Lyricist:Calum Macdonald , Rory Macdonald
Across the skies the monuments stand Shrines of wonder, man worshiping man Computer ethics mock a dying land
Down below like rats in a cage Success, survival, two needles in hay It's Romans One facing Satan's stare
But mountains are holy places and beauty is free We can still walk through the garden Our earth was once green
Pull down the forests, we need more wood Extend the grazing, we need more food Burning our bridges before the flood
Out on the oceans where it's relatively safe It's not so easy being big as a whale Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com We're all in a race on a bigger scale
But mountains are holy places and beauty is free We can still walk through the garden Our earth was once green
Homosapien, I've had enough Homosapien, I'm givin' up At best your wisdom's a shot in the dark
So make yourself pretty, make yourself rich Leopardskin, sealskin, money and sex Apartheid, genocide, thalidomide, life, it's your choice
But mountains are holy places and beauty is free We can still walk through the garden Our earth was once green
