Song for the Earth Liberation Front Lyrics & Tabs by David Rovics
Song for the Earth Liberation Front
guitar chords lyrics
Civil disobedience
Has many permutations
You can block the streets in front of
The United Nations
You can lay down on the tracks
Keep the nuke trains out of town
Or you can pour gas on the condo
And you can burn it down
So here's a toast to the night
Three cheers and a grunt
(Hey Hey Hey Eugh)
To the Earth Liberation Front
The Earth Liberation Front
You can go to Senate hearings
Wait til they call your name
The Earth Liberation Front
You can go to Senate hearings
Wait til they call your name
My hat is off to anyone
With the will to play that game
But if you want to know the truth
What warms my aching heart
Is to see the masked avengers
Come to tear the road apart
()
They'll tell you thatit's violent
To destroy a logging truck
These are the very people
Who'd kill the planet for a buck
Talk to the governor
Be reasonable, they say
Maybe we can talk tomorrow
But we can pull the crops today
()
There are so many things of beauty
In this world to see
A wild, running river
Or an old-growth redwood tree
But in such an ugly situation
So sinister and dire
There's nothing quite so lovely
As a Wal-Mart on fire
