Rip
Slash
Burn
Trash
Yes tear the forest down
Because you make another dollar
when another tree crashes to the ground
Just stop and think for a minute before you
make another start
Every tree that you bring crashing down
Is another wound to the beating heart
It can't beat forever and every time you make it bleed
You are destroying the future
the future we all need
So put away the axe and saw, no more the burning brand
because the dollars will not save you
when you've destroyed this land
