Testo Protest Song - July
Testo della canzone Protest Song (July), tratta dall'album The Wight Album
All you shoppers and tossers who hang out in malls
Your kids will go nowhere 'cause you've got no balls
With your squeaky clean kitchens and white tinted walls
You're abused by the laws that protect you
Your government squanders and arms the weak-minded
While the idiots' lanterns hold your attention
And nobody sees that it's cure not prevention
And Mother Earth goes round and round
Mother Earth goes round and round
All you white collar workers asleep in your stalls
Will insurance support you when acid rain falls
And the sea level rises up over the walls
Of the cities you built to protect you
And the green fields have gone under acres of highway
Your cars can go nowhere, they rust in the driveway
Your womenfolk find themselves walking to Safeway
Still Mother Earth goes round and round
Still Mother Earth goes round and round
All for one, one for all and to hell with the rest
The means never matter as long as you're best
How much you love money, that's your greatest test
And compassion need never afflict you
Your companies plunder and crush the weak nations
Those with too much have no conscience to waken
And those that have not, what they have shall be taken
Still Mother Earth goes round and round
Yes, Mother Earth goes round and round
But now listen up fools, every dog has its day
And the things you held dear will too soon fade away
Nature's powers of change will not be held at bay
Your defense will be sure to convict you
And the gold you have gathered will carry you under
The land mines you sowed will return to their makers
The world will be free of the butchers and fakers
And those who were taken will soon be the takers
Mother Earth goes round and round
Mother Earth goes round and round
