Lyrics

APOLOGIES TO MOTHER EARTH (Z)

1)
Let's hang our heads in shame
Stop making dumb excuses
There's no one else who's livin who can get the blame
Nope, face up to it
Face up to it
The culprits, - yeah, that's us

2)
Still rip her to pieces
Tear her from coast to coast
Keep stealing her resources year on year increase
Boy, face up to it
Face up to it
If we don't - we'll soon be toast

Chorus
With one common voice we (mankind) need(s) to say
Apologies to Mother Earth
For destroying all your oceans
And polluting the water chain
We're gonna change our stupid ways
Give you due devotion
Wise up good and use our brains
And
Let you bloom again

Bridge
Poisoned atmosphere
Impotent soil
It gets worse every day
We got a price to pay
Now
We live in constant fear

We have abused you Mother Earth

3 NEW
We went on the rampage
Raped you for your resources
What we have done to you is nothing less than sacrilege
Now you are angry
Now, it's your turn
To hit us - with your forces








4 NEW (sent before)
We know we've done it wrong
We just got above our station
But now we realise where our priorities belong
We'll face up to it
Face up to it
Please grant us - our salvation

Chorus/Outro
With common voice we (mankind) need(s) to say
Apologies to Mother Earth
For destroying all your oceans
And polluting the water chain
We're gonna change our stupid ways
Give you due devotion
Wise up good and use our brains
And
Let you bloom again

Cos we know now just what your worth -

Apologies to Mother Earth
