Why Can't they Leave The Stone Alone?
Why Canât They Leave The Stone Alone?
They churn, they turn, they break, they burn â
And use the food of Mother Earth â
To plunder that which since its birth â
Has been laid down below.
They plunder it and take it home â
Why canât they leave the stone alone?
They claim, they tame they sell, they blame â
The motorways that help to speed â
And the Barrier they hope has freed â
Us from a future flood to come.
They plunder it â strip it to the bone â
Why canât they leave the earth alone?
