free the world
will this world ever be free
Free from you and me
chopping down its trees
eating all its fish
bring the world to its knees
Taking all its guts to wear
around your neck
gold and silver brass and tin
making holes with in
Killing off the animal one by one
making the air impossible to in hale
Will this world be able to fight back
better help it
or it will do it with out you and ME
