From the recording Songs of Freedom
just because you’ve got a few stockholders holding out their hands
you think you have a right to do anything you want to public land
and you’ve lined up all the politicos, dotted all the i’s and crossed the t’s
you’ve thought of everything but one thing you must’ve overlooked is me
‘cause this is my land i own it just as much as you
and if i say we’re gonna keep it green
that’s just what we’re gonna do
just because the world is over-wired with every gadget you could buy
you think the power that we use gives you the right to rule the sky
and your smoke is drifting out over the forests just as far as you can see
you’ve got it all together but one thing you must’ve overlooked is me
‘cause this is my sky i own it just as much as you
and if i say we’re gonna keep it blue
that’s just what we’re gonna do
just because there’s oil ‘neath the waters and profits in the air
you look out on the clear blue sea, you want to drill most anywhere
and you’re fouling up the beaches and killing off a million birds and trees
you say nothing can be done but you’re never ever going to convince me
‘cause this is my sea i own it just as much as you
and if i say we’re gonna keep it clear
that’s just what we’re gonna do
just because it’s expensive to change the way you do the things you do
you want to ignore everything the things you do have brought the climate to
and it’s getting warmer everyday and still you pretend that you don’t see
you can go on like you’re doing but you’re gonna have to do it without me
‘cause this is my world i own it just as much as you
and if i say we’re gonna keep it cool
that’s just what we’re gonna do
