Mama Nature Said

(album: Vagabonds Of The Western World - 1973)

My mama Nature said
"It's murder what you've done"
I sent you forth my brightest world
Now it's nearly gone

Birds and bees been telling me
You can't see the forest for the trees
You cover up your lies with sympathies
And I got no solutions to your persecution

Mama Nature said
"Can't believe it's true"
Ooh, I gave you life and food for thought
Look what did you do

You're killing my rivers
Drowning my baby streams
Day by day by day by day by day, I hear them screams
I'm so disillusioned, so disillusioned

Mama Nature said
"You're guilty of this crime"
Now it's not just a matter of fact
But just a matter of time

Cruel will be the vengeance
So savage is the deed that's done
And I've got no solutions to your own pollutions
Oh, you're so filthy, deep down you're dirty too

Go get her, boy!
