Who Put a Price Tag on Earth?A Poem by SimonitroXAnd it is now sold Borrowed Underneath the hands A relished possession In the pockets for the greed Auditioning the green While laughing at feeble ones Everything here is made for profit Whenever the darkness does hit No care to this planet at all Selling the shoot star's fall From the breath To the fire Drink of water And the turf to bury the dead Everything goes green from the red From the trees come the notes To buy the beauty of lands No more fighting Just up-for-grabs (Bridge) Going once - What am I to you again? Going twice - How are you going to reign? And gone - Taken by the man with the cigar (Chorus) Everything must go Liquidate this Earth Paying the ultimate due To our really final hour of death Life and death are not for sale Discounted down to our souls For pleasure comes the pain When the dollar signs blinding this world Becoming enslaved to the symbol The symbol of death In which wars have been fought The heights of the egos Killing the eagles in the skies Many shall fall as they die The rain of the notes Collected by evil hands Just to destroy with When did this land A God-given land Became a profit to the greed We must take heed There seems to be no hope in sight What else are you looking for? Humans becoming their own enemy When the rich becoming the poor in the mind In their own abyss, they become so blind As they fall forever in their own holes “Did you hear that? Eden has been discounted ON ALL PRODUCTS!!” The riches of the Earth Which used to be Now, it is all become for greed Since the new babe’s birth (Bridge) Going once - What am I to you again? Going twice - How are you going to reign? And gone - Taken by the man with the cigar (Chorus) Everything must go Liquidate this Earth Paying the ultimate due To our really final hour of death Life and death are not for sale Discounted down to our souls (Guitar Solo 1) Cut the trees Pollute the seas All in the name of cash Oil the skies Smoke do rise All in the name of cash Paint with green All in between All in the name of cash Extinct the wild Trash the tides All in the name of cash Marketing overflowing Burn the forest for your paper money Which flies in the wind To the east, west to send Who care about the atmosphere When the dollars are so clear To the Scrooges devouring our world Our would shall be stabbed BY THE GOLDEN SWORD (Guitar Solo 2) Earthy-earthy-earthy Mine! Mine! Mine! Earthy-earthy-earthy Money! Money! Money! Just the symbols of death Roaming around the globe With numbers and figures And you… devoured by the glutton ones No genuinity No morality When the flesh is been bought From the animals to the human kind “We want the coins for the daughters” Children are sold From hand to hand Nothing is safe from the greed Give me more Give me more AND KILL ME AGAIN SO… Sing with me Earthy-earthy-earthy Ours! Ours! Ours! Earthy-earthy-earthy Money! Money! Money! MONEY TALKS LOUD!!! (Guitar Solo 3) Swines of this Earth Will sing their victory songs Over the blood And broken bones Of the ones trying to survive Asking the questions: “Is my land for sale?” “Is my soul for rent? “How can I survive? “Is what life is about?” To pay money, money, money To a world that is never enough TO BE FED WE ALL SHALL END UP DEAD Without the phony riches OF THIS EARTH HEY MOTHER!!! As we ask WHY ARE YOU SO EXPENSIVE TO LIVE TO LIVE TO LIVE I… WANT… TO… LIVE Death is cheap? How are we going to break the silence When louder comes the cash flow In which direction will this wind blow Humankind shall resort to violence After they reach for their pockets With emptiness inside As you are being going up to Heaven Ha! Ha! Ha! No! Are you kidding? YOU ARE GOING STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!! TO HELL!!! HELL!!!! WITH NOTHING TO GAIN HA! HA! HA! As we ask those questions ONCE AGAIN (Bridge) Going once - What am I to you again? Going twice - How are you going to reign? And gone - Taken by the man with the cigar (Chorus) Everything must go Liquidate this Earth Paying the ultimate due To our really final hour of death Life and death are not for sale Discounted down to our souls Welcome to planet Earth, human! HA! HA! HA! HA! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
