Mother of us all Place of our birth How can we stand aside And watch the rape of the wold This the beginning of the end This the most heinous of crimes This the deadliest of sins The greatest violation of all time Mother of us all Place of our birth We all are witness To the rape of the world You've seen her stripped mined You've heard of bombs exploded underground You know the sun shines Hotter than ever before Mother of us all Place of our birth We all are witness To the rape of the world Some claim to have crowned her A queen With cities of concrete and steel But there is no glory no honor In what results From the rape of the world Mother of us all Place of our birth We all are witness To the rape of the world She has been clear-cut She has been dumped on She has been poisoned and beaten up And we have been witness To the rape of the world Mother of us all Place of our birth How can we stand aside And watch the rape of the world If you look you'll see it with your own eyes If you listen you will hear her cries If you care you will stand and testify And stop the rape of the world Stop the rape of the world Mother of us all Mother of us all Mother of us all Mother of us all
