The sky was light and the land all dark The petal sky and the rosy dawn Run run run run said the automobile and we ran Turn away from your animal kind As if you were your own creation We thought we ought to walk awhile We reached the tree line and I dropped my pack Pray for the forest pray to the tree The sun rose up over central park The world turning on the burning sun Run for your life take to your heels Try to leave your body just to live in your mind As if you were the chosen nation So we left that town in a single file Sat down on my haunches and I looked back down over the mountain Pray for the fish in the deep blue sea I was walking home from work Sacred wet green one that we live on Foolish school of fish on wheels Leave your cold cruel mother earth behind And the world around you just a rude and dangerous invasion Up and up and up mile after mile after mile Helpless and speechless and breathless Pray for yourself and for god's sake say one for me Gaia Someone's got to stop us now Save us from us gaia No one's gonna stop us now Poor wretched unbeliever
