Man's a filthy creature
Raping the land and water and the air
Tomorrow may be too late
Now's the time that you must be aware
Nature's disappearing
Polluted death is coming, do you care

Garbage going nowhere
Soon the dumps will spread to your front door
Lakes and rivers stagnant
Nothing lives or grows like years before
Nature's disappearing
The world you take for granted soon no more

Read about pollution
Make manufacturers uncomfortable
Boycott at the market
Containers that are non-returnable
Aluminum, glass and plastic
Eternal waste that's not destructible

We're a generation
That may live out our natural time
But as for all our children
Born to suffocate in human slime
Nature's disappearing
And we are guilty of this massive crime
