We Can't Eat Money
Kahn Morbee
Where have all the flowers gone?
Why are the bees tired of honey?
Whatever happened to the whale’s song?
Do we realize now we can’t eat money
When the last of the trees have turned to currency
That’s when the birds will all stop singing
When will we tire of this grave we keep on digging?
And realize how we can’t eat money
Remember how we stole from the oceans?
To float in the belly of the beast
Hear mother weep 'cause she failed to teach
The truth about how we can’t eat money
