- -open
And when Man gained dominion
- -open
over land and the oceans
- -open
he began to harm the planet
with his asphalt and his toxins
- -open
and to lay the forest bare
- -open
and to poison even the air
- -open
and he killed every beast
and taught the seas how to bleed
Burned by the fire we make,
what a shame
- -open
Then the winds gave in
- -open
and the rain knew no season
- -open
and the sun came to beat
on a land of sand and diseases
- -open
and when God looked down
- -open
on the earth and saw it was broken
- -open
then the tears of God fell down
through a hole in the ozone
Burned by the fire we make
what a shame
This is the nature of the human race
to kill off anything that gets in our way
poor Mother Earth we disfigured her face
Man is the maker of his own disgrace
Burned by the fire we make
what a shame
This is the nature of the human race
to kill off anything that gets in our way
poor Mother Earth we disfigured her face
Man is the maker of his own disgrace
Burned by the fire we make
Burned by the fire we make
Burned by the fire we make
what a shame
To be burned by the fire we make
what a shame
