BEHIND BLUE EYES
(Tune: "Behind Blind Eyes,". Who's Next, The Who)
(Lyrics: Bob Murphy/Leslie Lowcock)

We all know what it's like, to be the bad man
To sit and throw sand in each other's eyes
We all know what it's like to be hated
To be fated and blinded by our lies
But my dreams they are as empty
As my conscience seems to be
We have hours, maybe only years
To save the world's biodiversity
How many know what it's like, to watch their child die
Like some do, and they blame you
No one bites back as hard on their anger
When they see us acting like we do
And these dreams they seem so empty
Like our conscience seems to be
We have little time remaining
To make a difference, can't you see?
mmmmmm
Find a big tree crack it over
Plant designer coffee to be cool
Destroy much needed pharmaceuticals
Yeah, throw more sand and act like a fool
And when we consume more than we need
It means that ignorance is in style
'Cause we've lose sight of what's important
So hold me close let me hug my child
We all know what it's like to be the bad man
To sit and throw sand in each other's eyes
Character state trees
