Ravaged Mother Earth

Wouldn't listen to anyone

couldn't see they were wrong

they continued to dig deep holes

and blow up their bombs

They choose to deny the truth

and they refuse to believe

that these bad things they do

are evil indeed, motivated by greed

Ravaged Mother Earth

they've torn out her heart

they've poisoned her seas

destroying her raiments

her flowers and her trees

Her mountains are moving

Her volcanoes awake

Her plates and her layers 

they tremble and quake

Ravaged Mother Earth

they've torn out her heart

brings woe upon us all..

Kia ora (greetings, thank you, cheers..) BydOnz. I wrote Ravaged Mother Earth as I song back in the 80's when the french were bombing Mururoa Atoll. This is a compilation of some of the lyrics.. Back in the day The Rainbow Warrior was bombed by the french here in Aotearoa, killing innocent lives. We the people have been peacefully protesting for years. Right now we are trying to protect our water ways (lakes, streams, rivers, seas). So yea nah, I wouldn't say failed, probably just reached their expiry date..  time for the young people to have a go..lol I hope they can change it too.

Nga Mihi (goodbye, thank you, cheers..)
