We cut trees Then make papers Where we write posters To not cut trees. We make money To buy everything But by having nothing We let money make us. We arm our troops To build peace Yet the same weapon Is used to destroy peace. We sacrifice our health Just to save money Only to spend it all To save our health. We destroy forests To create cities So that inside them We can make forests. Our lack of knowledge Leads to ignorance But the same is true With knowing too much.

Ironic
We cut trees Then make papers Where we write posters To not cut trees. We make money To buy everything But by having nothing We let money make us. We arm our troops To build peace Yet the same weapon Is used to destroy peace. We sacrifice our health Just to save money Only to spend it all To save our health. We destroy forests To create cities So that inside them We can make forests. Our lack of knowledge Leads to ignorance But the same is true With knowing too much.
