Occupy Festival - Jasha van Roij

The Story Singer

In 2010 the news came out man?
Restore opium fields by killing Taliban
Well it's alright now mama I still love the world
They must have really wanted war because they armed them with their weapons first.

North Africa is rising up against dictatorship
The Movement franchising to replace the human whip
It's alright now mama I still love the world
Put your shoe up in the air for enough people got hurt.

One and one is three and synergy is good
Why don't we all start eating slow food?
O now tell me mama what is wrong with this world?
Some are still treating nature like we own another planet like Earth

So in 2011 Something will been learned?
There ain't no hell or heaven and money will be burned
But it's alright now mama I still love the world
Some are just not listening some can't believe what they've heard

Another year is coming and many more ahead
I feel the earth drumming want to hear it sing instead
But is alright now mama I'll always love the world
No matter how much we pray. The final word always comes from earth
And our existence on this planet is by grace of the universe.
