The Rape of the World |
| Mother of us all |
| Place of our birth |
| How can we stand aside |
| And watch the rape of the wold |
| This the beginning of the end |
| This the most heinous of crimes |
| This the deadliest of sins |
| The greatest violation of all time |
| Mother of us all |
| Place of our birth |
| We all are witness |
| To the rape of the world |
| You’ve seen her stripped mined |
| You’ve heard of bombs exploded underground |
| You know the sun shines |
| Hotter than ever before |
| Mother of us all |
| Place of our birth |
| We all are witness |
| To the rape of the world |
| Some claim to have crowned her |
| A queen |
| With cities of concrete and steel |
| But there is no glory no honor |
| In what results |
| From the rape of the world |
| Mother of us all |
| Place of our birth |
| We all are witness |
| To the rape of the world |
| She has been clear-cut |
| She has been dumped on |
| She has been poisoned and beaten up |
| And we have been witness |
