Roger McGuinn - The Trees Are All Gone lyrics

The glaciers near the polar cap have all begun to melt Temperatures are on the rise far from the southern belt Water levels shifting tides on every changing land Rain forests in the Amazon have vanished from our hand And the trees are all gone Yeah you know it's all wrong And the trees are all gone The people want to eat today and so they clear the land Global warming is a concept they can't understand But all the politicians now they have no excuse They just hide behind their power and keep us from the truth Man has tried his suicide with bigotry and hate But in the end he'll k** himself with nothing but his waste What will finally happen when the farm lands turn to dust When only rich receive the food and nothing's left for us But all the politicians now they have no excuse They just hide behind their power and keep us from the truth
