Death in the wilderness
|
It's a hopeless case I guess
|
Who's looking out for the wilder side
|
It will soon all be gone
|
You can tell it won't be long
|
We'll find the wilderness has died
|
We'll be the lonely one
|
Concrete, plastic human throng
|
Tellin' one another have you heard the news
|
We'll mow it down, we'll rape the ground
|
'Til there's nothing left to abuse
|
The rabbit, he'll be gone
|
The bird will sing no song
|
The wolf, the bear, the lion too
|
The insect far and near, creatures like the deer
|
We'll put in cages a the zoo
|
Death in the wilderness
|
It's a hopeless case I guess
|
Who's looking out for the wilder side
|
It will soon all be gone
|
You can tell it won't be long
|
We'll find the wilderness has died
|
The stream will all dry out
|
The fish, gone no doubt
|
We'll have no animals to fear
|
The tree will be no more
|
We'll use it to build the store
|
Mountain scene will disappear
|
These changes takin' place
|
Will affect the human race
|
We'll all know it when it's gone
|
God save this planet now
|
We've got to help somehow
|
We've left it happen way too long
|
Death in the wilderness
|
It's a hopeless case I guess
|
Who's looking out for the wilder side
|
It will soon all be gone
|
You can tell it won't be long
|
We'll find the wilderness has died
|
We'll find the wilderness has died
|
