Tune: McNamara’s Band
Oh we are the western nations
and we don’t respect the land
We’re using up resources and
we think it’s all so grand,
We’re polluting all the oceans and
we’re oiling up the sands
It won’t be long before we’re gone ‘
if we sit on our hands!!
Stand up and fight, make them aware
Sit on your hands, if you don’t care
Stand up and fight, for the earth we need
It’s better by far if we learn
to live without the greed!
Oh we are the western nations
and we shop until we drop
We always think we need some more
to keep us on the top
The earth is being wasted
just so we can have our fill,
We shouldn’t have to worry,
let our kids pick up the bill!
Stand up and fight, make them aware
Sit on your hands, if you don’t care
Stand up and fight, for the earth we need
It’s better by far if we learn
to live without the greed!
