Nylons - Amazon текст песни

Somewhere on the edge of time

You hear a plaintive song

Remembering a way of life

That seemed to go on and on and on

What can we offer them now

In a world that has turned from grace

The jungle is burning so fast

The smoke can be seen from space

I walk along these smokey city streets

Within these jungle walls its so hard to breathe

I heard the news and its been eating at me

Theyre tearing down the last of the amazon trees

The poor have need of the land, they say

But the soil is thin and ends up blowin away

What about a million years of history

And the creatures who inhabit this great mystery

Weve got to buy back the amazon

Weve got to give the earth a chance to carry on

If its money they need lets give them all that they want

Weve got to buy back the amazon

Buy back the amazon

We carry on and keep it all inside

But the time will come when therell be nowhere to hide

With all were spending on our wars in space

Why cant we save the mother of the human race

Weve got to buy back the amazon

Weve got to give the earth a chance to carry on

If its money they need lets give them all that they want

Weve got to buy back the amazon

Buy back the amazon

Buy back the amazon

Save it now so we can pass it on

Wake up! our futures almost gone

Weve got to buy back the amazon

Weve got to give the earth a chance to carry on

Make no mistake, when its gone its gone...
