For the Children

(Click "More" for Lyrics) FREE DOWNLOAD AVAILABLE AT www.lancestunes.com - The environmental movement is in need of a good song, so this is my effort. If you agree that this is a good candidate please send it along to everybody you can think of, on the remote chance the right artist will hear it and ... well the rest will be history.
As requested, here are the lyrics

Listen to the beauty of the melody
a lovely symphony of nature's song
We have heard it our whole lives through
What are we going to do when the music is gone?

What are we going to tell the children there
When the polar bear and the penguin are through
Will we tell them how it used to be
Saying "Mother Nature sang for me but not for you."

Will they share our philosophy?
Will they shout "Let freedom ring."
Will they forgive both you and me
When there are no birds left to sing?

Comes a time when we must pay our debt
to those who yet are to be born
What kind of world is it going to be
from sea to shining sea on that silent morn?

Will we fall down on our knees
crying out "We're not to blame"?
When it's plain for all to see
The garden we were given will never be the same

Will they listen to our alibis
when our promise dies in their hands?
When the forest is silent for another day
Do you think that they will understand?

(guitar solo)

Listen to the beauty of the melody
a lovely symphony of nature's song
We have heard it our whole lives through
What are we going to do when the music is gone?

What are we going to tell the children there
When the polar bear and the penguin are through
Will we tell them how it used to be
Saying "Mother Nature sang for me but not for you."
