MARCHING SONG OF
THE PROTESTERS
(CRY OUT
Hear Cry Out in Real Audio
t was a very nice planet
A home for those of us who care
But there are fools in high places
Who foul the sea and air.
Cry out
Protest
Object
Be heard.
They stew the land with waste products
They blur the sea with oil
They poison plant and animal
And irradiate air and soil.
Cry out
Protest
Object
Be heard.
That’s not the worst:
The deadly burst of radiation fission looms
And threatens to send the lot of us
To our collective dooms.
Cry out
Protest
Object
Be heard.
To hell with those whose carelessness
In pollution is expressed
And to hell with force politics
Where victory is only death.
Cry out
Protest
Object
Be heard.
It once was a pretty planet
Not ripe to become a blot
Save earth, save earth, save earth, save earth
It’s the only home we’ve got.
Cry out
Protest
Object
Be heard.
