We mean it

Air we breathe
water we drink
food we eat
a threat it is
to our organism
We made it so
and didn't care
for we could choose
But not so any more
it pinches us now
wherever we go
and affects our children
worse and more
Where to send them
they don't want to go
and settle in foreign shores
A change has come
but a little too late
we have no choice
but here to stay
An opportunity has arisen
what our children dream
they want to make a future
which can't be bleak
We'll mange all this
the filth and pollution
and flies and disease
and make our land
beautiful and rich
and now we mean it!
