The world is dying, <br />Mother earth Is crying, <br />'Man.. man.. man, <br />You have caused me much pain, <br />Even if I rain hailstones on him he still is stubborn', <br /> <br />'Man.. Man.. Man, <br />You cut down my hard grown forests without replanting them, <br />You plunder my breasts spilling my precious milk, <br />Keeping my marine offspring in extinct extinction, <br />You flare gas into the air making this same air your main life <br />source thinner and thinner, destroying my ozone layer', <br /> <br />'You manufacture harmful chemicals which you use as refrigerants <br />And for upholstery production these same deplete the ozone layer, <br />Hear ye! Hark ye! Woe betide you for burning my forest, <br />See the charred evidences with so much natural life in jeopardy, <br />Your over-zealousness has plundered the wildlife I granted true bliss, <br />They are now unsafe and close to extinction, <br />I will withhold my anger for a short time and look on, <br />But when thy cup of sin filleth not even my creator will withold my fury, <br />I am MOTHER EARTH!
