Gaia

The sky was light and the land all dark, the sun rose up over Central Park
I was walking home from work, Gaia
The petal sky and the rosy dawn, the world turning on the burning sun
Sacred wet green one we live on, Gaia
Run, run, run, run said the automobile and it ran, run for your life,
take to your heels
Foolish school of fish on wheels, Gaia, Gaia
Turn away from your animal kind, try to leave your body just to live in your
mind
Leave your cold cruel mother earth behind, Gaia
As if you were your own creation, as if you were the chosen nation
The world around you, just a rude and dangerous invasion, Gaia, Gaia, Gaia
Someone’s got to stop us now, save us from us Gaia, no one’s got to stop us now
We thought we ought to walk awhile, so we left that town in a single file
Up and up and up, mile after mile after mile
We reached the tree line and I dropped my pack
Sat down on my haunches and I looked back down over the mountain
Helpless and speechless and breathless, Gaia
Pray for the forest pray for the tree, pray for the fish in the deep blue sea
Pray for yourself and for God’s sake, say one for me, poor wretched unbeliever
Someone’s got to stop us now, save us from us Gaia, no one’s got to stop us now
