What have they done to the rivers,my friend?
What have they done to the seas?
What have they done to the rivers,my friend?
What have they done to the trees?
Well they turned all the seas into mud,my friend,
And they killed all the fish in those seas,
And they poured out their oil and their waste,my friend,
Cause they think they can do as they please.
They've built their cities
And they've made their roads
And they'll test their bombs
Till the world explodes
Into millions of little pieces.
What have they done to our land, my friend?
This land which is ours from our birth.
What have they done to our forests, my friend?
What have they done to the earth?
Well, they've turned our land to a desert, my friend,
A desert of concrete and stone,
And they've done this for profit and gain, my friend,
Till they've ruined the earth that we own.
What have they done to the skies, my friend?
Skies that are blue and so clear.
What have they done to the skies, my friend?
What have they done to the air?
Well, they've poured out their smoke and their fumes, my friend,
Till you can't see the sun in the sky.
And they've poisoned the air that we breathe, my friend,
Till we cough and till we choke and we die.
