For short lived cattle grazing land
|
With the whole world in their hands
|
They're cutting down and burning up the land
|
Asset stripping the medicine man
|
& all for one
|
And every man for himself
|
The conflict of interest lies
|
Selling off cheap
|
Avoid political heat and burn up in a forest fire
|
|
And now that there's nothing left
|
Just a hole above our heads
|
Letting the sunshine in
|
That's how the end begins
|
With a forest fire
|
|
The black cloud rising in the sky
|
Up into the atmosphere
|
] it's bringing down a different kind of weather
|
to the one we knew last year
|
and
|
though it's taking so long to do something about it
|
they chip away at it
|
bit by bit
|
you won't believe anything that grown up for so long
|
could be cut down this quick
|
|
and now that there's nothing left
|
just a hole above our heads
|
letting the sunshine in
|
that's how the end begins
|
with a forest fire
|
|
in the corner of a foreign land
|
in the wind that blows the sand
|
there's the sting of a thousand lies
|
that burned up in a forest fire
|
we're burning up
|
in a clear blue sky
|
in a funeral pyre
|
in a big white lie
|
in a forest fire
|
|
