Stonewall Lyrics

(l: J. Waters)

Chorus:
Stonewall - go to bat
Unless you want to live like that
Stonewall - can't we see
We're our own worst enemy
A land said to have all, wealth in land, in man
Qualities soon to exhaust as man's greed poisons the land
Streams, once frash, were centers of life for so many creature
Beauty without a defence, polluted, never to replenish
Repeat chorus
Collage, blue and green, seen as golden industrial sites
Smudge as toxic pollutants destroy her remaining rights
The power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are impossed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat chorus
Bridge:
It's time to listen and see the signs
It's time to listen and hear her cries
The one that gave us life is being burned to the raw
Reaping unprotected riches, human nature's self-destructing flaw
The power of corporations spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are impossed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat chorus
