Governments and multinationals   Corrupt and twisted women and men   Are going to bring this planet   To a premature end   With their selfishness and greed   They destroy anything of worth   Are you just going to sit and watch   Their rape of mother earth?   They just could't care less   About the ecological devastation   Inflicted by their insane striving   For profit maximisation   We've got to fight back   We've got to give resistance   Or they'll pollute and exploit   Our world out of existance   Industrial accidents and radiation leaks   So babies are born as freaks   Like the Re-Chen babies with one eye   Or those who Windscale called before their time   And the petrol is full of lead   So kids grow up wrong in the head   And aerosols destroy the ozone layer   No protection - no we're layed bare   And nuclear waste is dumped into the sea   A slow poison for you and me   And what was once fertile land   Has now turned to desert sand   And acid rain pours from the sky   So whole forests wither and die   And dirty cities grey and drab   Cover theyland like concrete scabs   And toxic chemicals are pumped into streams   Death where once life would have been   The whole situation has got out of hand   So go green and make your stand   And it seems you couldn't care less   That our earth is in such a mess   It makes me wonder how long it will take   Before you finally awake   Please, please you got to open your eyes   'Cos you've got to realise   Exactly what those in power got planned   This is the last chance to make your stand   Now that we see what's going on   We've got to stop them and we aint got long   This isn't something just to sing about   'Cos our time is running out...
