Close every door to the waist of space that I am, Push my plight from you mind And take all that you can I won't miss you But I'm certain you'll see That once I am gone You will really miss me.
Drill out the poisons And shave of the trees Smoother the meadows and empty the seas. I'm not sticking around For the next act of man My ecosystems are bust I've done all that I can.
I'll take the birds and the bats and the bees, I'll keep the bugs the shrubs and the trees, I'll unravel the wind from the rustling leaves It may seem worthless to you But it's priceless to me.
I'll unstitch the patchwork off the rolling hillsides, the grass can be folded and the tree roots untied. You can pull out the flowers and plants crops in rows But don't come crying to me When nothing good grows.
I'll pick out all the fish The flies and the frog I'll unpeeled the rivers and collect up the logs. The atmospheres filthy I'll just chuck it away There's no fixing that No matter how much you pay.
I've salvaged what i can Of the soil and peat, Some has been scorched by the increasing heat, I'm taking the Beavers The wolves and the Bears I've pack up their lodges, their dens and their lairs.
I've had enough of been trampled and torn My airs all populated And my earth is all worn. You can keep all your money Good look on your own Let's see how you get on without your ozone.
