Chop Down The Forests

CHOP DOWN THE FORESTS

I'm not afraid of admitting

I'm just another monkey on the earth

I'm one in over 6 billion

So what I've got to say has probably been heard

Don't be so blind you can't recognize

We're all pretty much the same

We think we're free but we're hypnotized

By the propaganda in our brains

"I'm so wonderfully special and I'm different"

Wipe that notion from your head

Being alive is sufficient

But we're all just soon-to-be-deads

So let's chop down the forests while we're at it

Let's kill as many species as we can

Let's destroy everything that's natural

And all - for the glory of Man

Fight fight fight for the money

Grab as much of it as you desire

I believe being rich will make me happy

Even if it makes me a liar

Right right right on the issues

Justifying actions in your mind

I can't escape when I want to

It's still illegal to get high

Can't get enough of this culture

Advertising everything I need

The Simpson's selling Whoppers on the TV

A beautiful example of our greed

So let's chop down the forests while we're at it

Let's kill as many species as we can

Let's destroy everything that's natural

And all - for the glory of Man

Let's divide the world into countries

Let's genetically modify the food

Let's start another war about religion

And tell everyone God is Good

So let's  chop down the forests while we're at it

Let's kill as many species as we can

Let's destroy everything that's natural

And all - for the glory of Man
