Why do you take more than you will ever need
Happily Drowning in the cesspool of your greed?
All on this planet yes we all are one
We all have earned our little place in the sun
Why are you greedy?
What will it take?
Your thrust for power
Than none can slake!
Our loving mother is not your garbage bin
Your crude in her water your toxins in her wind
Earth scared and barren strip mined ravaged face
She's not just yours we all share in this place
Can't take it with you
End of your life
Why damn the people
To poverty and strife?
Your children's' futures all corrode in midair
This is our one home world we don't have a spare
Treat her with greater love or we'll be left behind
Fossils in extinction the end of mankind
Why are you greedy?
What will it take?
Your thrust for power
Than none can slake
Can't take it with you
End of your life
Why damn the people
To poverty and strife?
