Pete Seeger sings for you
John changed the beat
King dreamed great dreams for you
while Walter Cronkite weeps.

The idiot prince read his script
The preachers prayed for war
The People's Congress closed their door
The empire plays for keeps.
      
Kind hearts and brave souls
make Earth a better place
for the very young and very old
not just for the human race.

We were proud to end the holocaust
and become the greatest nation
The fight we face in this day and age
is the greed of corporation.


CHORUS:
There's panic in a tipping point
   Come and take our hand
    Love is hard but love is great
       I swear its not too late.

Some of us make food
Some of us make weapons
Some of us have lost our homes
our money and our children.

Some of us made money
and bought a bigger boat.
Some of us made religion pay
so much it made us gloat.

Some of us are trained with hate
and some of us for peace
They told us all why we fight
But it's really (whispering) oil, gas and grease.

We were proud to end the holocaust
and become the greatest nation
The fight we face in this day and age
is the greed of corporation.

B Section:

Songbirds frogs and tigers
They're all a dying breed
Whales Apes and dolphin
They're all a dying breed
Honest politicians
They're all a dying breed
Compassionate Christians
They're all a dying breed
Humble preachers everywhere
They are a dying breed
Those who use just what they need
They're all a dying breed
Those who respect reason
They are a dying breed
Those who practice the golden rule
They are a dying breed.
Pacifists and soldiers
They are a dying breed
Our great great grandchildren
They're all a dying breed

Greedy Trillionaires
They are a …….What?
They think they'll live forever but
They are a dying breed.



Some of us are trained with hate
and some of us for peace
They told us all why we fight
But it's really (whispering) oil, gas and grease.

We were proud to end the holocaust
and become the greatest nation

is the greed of corporation.

CHORUS:

There's panic in a tipping point
   Come and take our hand
    Love is hard but love is great
       I swear its not too late.

Don-

I really like the song but spellcheck really clicks in as a distraction.

The thread title now spells "dying" correctly. Maybe some nice Joe Clone would correct the spelling of "dieing" in your first post as well.

It's not BS but that's your call.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

Apparently "BS" stands for "Bad Spelling".

Ernest

Sounds like a song to me, Art:

Transplant every organ,
Sew up every seam,
Follow every dendrite,
You've got a surgical team!

Doesn't BS stand for best scripts?

I thought of a movie script about identity theft yesterday.

After the hero/victim Robert Dunning fails at every attempt to correct the theft of his identity and money,
he changes his identity to the person who stole his identity...commits a very hilarious public non life threatening criminal act* against all those who refused to help him...and then with the aid of DNA testing finally proves his true identity while the thief goes to prison for 20 years.



*(in a mask... but with latex ears showing that happen to look esactly like the identity thief's ears)
