Lyrics Mother Earth's Revenge - Karan Casey

Mother Earth's Revenge

I am a hawk on a mountain side
A crashing wave on a winter’s tide
The breeze that blows on a tall ship’s sail
I am the kick of a salmon’s tail
I’m up above and I am below
I’m black and white, I’m sand and I’m snow
I’m all around and I live within
I’m mother earth the spirit in all living things
I’m winter white oh I’m autumn gold
I’m summer’s bloom I’m springs new soul
I’m every season with the birds that sing
I’m mother earth the spirit in all living things
But you cut down the trees
Your fumes they choke the breeze
You burn the world for oil
And you poison the soil
So I’ll flood the plains
I’ll drown you in your acid rain
I’ll pour fourth a curse and
Return you back to dust
When lightning strikes you’ll know I’m near
You knew the beauty now feel the fear
As your storm rolls in you better hide
I’ll make you wish that you weren’t alive
(repeat first verse)
