“Only when the last river has been polluted, and the last tree been cut down, and the last fish been caught, will we realize that we cannot eat money” (Native American saying)
This song perfectly describes the current situation of our planet and people’s attitude towards Nature and their future.
Earth Song
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we’ve shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shores?
Ah Ooh
Ah Ooh
What have we’ve done to the world
Look what we’ve done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shores…
