You see those lovely hills
They won't be there for long

Here come the toxic spills
Miners poking all around
When this place looks like a moonscape

Verse:

Money, money, money...
Money makes the trees come down
It makes mountains into molehills
Big money kicks the wide wide world around.


Black bear in the orchard
At night he's in my garbage cans
He's getting so bold but no one wants to shoot him
He's got a right to roam this land.

Verse:

I feel like Geronimo
I used to be as trusting as Cochise
But the white eyes lies 
He's out of whack with nature
And look how far his weapons reach!

Spirit of the water 
Give us all the courage and the grace
To make genius of this tragedy unfolding
The genius to save this place.
