album Who Bombed Judi Bari?; also featured in Uprise Singing, compiled by Alicia Littletree.

Cutting down the forest
Hauling it away
Rumble of your lumber trucks
At the break of day
Last of the baby redwoods
Hit that forest floor
Run 'em through your chipper
To make your wafer board
L-P....

Three-hundred-thousand acres without stopping
Forest to a desert in a day
Modern forestry is so amazing
Let the future generations pay
L-P....

Haul it to the sawmill
Got to make a buck
Your blades are worn and dangerous
Better trust your luck
Don't stop for the workers' safety
Never fear the worst
'Cause if somebody kills themselves
Just blame it on Earth First!
L-P....

When the trees are gone just close your mill down
Pack up your machines and move away
Don't worry about the lives you're devastating
Cut and run's the only game you play
L-P....

Barren ruined hillsides
Are all you leave behind
Before the land can heal itself
You cut a second time
Logging to infinity
Watch you profits grow
With our forests and our future
On a barge to Mexico
L-P....

Is that the 'hypocritical" use of a guitar made of "wood", plastic or some other petrolium product that I hear? Na, probably made of bone and human skin, right? If you earth firsters ever obtained your goal of extinction of humans, who would be left to admire the trees? Oh, that's right, trees have hearts and souls and legal rights too. You fruitcake hippies wouldn't have survived a hundred years ago. I think I'll go drain my oil over a storm drain today just to spite you.

[NotSoOldHippy]

You have the IQ of a Republican.

[Commonsenseify]

I see your true agenda. You don't really care about the environment, you just HATE republicans. HATE, HATE, HATE. "I hate this, I hate that, boo hoo,hoo". "I hate hot, I hate cold, I hate that I'm human and I don't have fur like the animals". "I hate being alive and using mother earths resources, waa, waa, waa"!

[NotSoOldHippy]

Aw, does the rightard loon get all upsot?

Look at this buttfuck Christian loon crying. Amazing.

guess commonsenseify died there's no more hateful spiteful comments. people like that are pretty scary but it takes all kinds. meanwhile, TRIBE'S ALIVE!!!!

[Zeuszgrl]

@Commonsenseify WHAT is wrong with you ? How do you equate preserving the Forest with calling for the extinction of humans ?? The Humans WILL go extinct if there's no Planet Earth left to sustain us ...Wake up and GROW UP !

[MannySteinerBIeeky]

@Commonsenseify - hippies wouldn't have survived 100 years ago? Shut the fuck up - your beliefs are not human, every single indigenous human tribe and other sane folks doing things manually & naturally is proof that they won't just have survived, they'd have thrived as some still do, despite the evils of consumerist urban sprawl.

People like you are the reason that cosmists tried to escape this planet into space.

[vapido]

@W3ghg3cpxp modern day logging ONLY replants because of people like this raising hell about clear cutting. without people like this we'd be in another dust bowl.

[NotSoOldHippy]

That's because you're a fucking insane rightard who has bought in to your Chrostofascist corporate leader's occult ignorance. Not once has a tree cutter ever been harmed by a tree spike, ya fucking rightard loon.

[Commonsenseify]

Ha, ha. Drugs help to extinct hippies! Care to be first?

[Commonsenseify]

I guarantee as a tree cutter, I'd deal harshly with a tree spiker who would do bodily harm to me or others with a tree spike. That is no different a type of terrorism than a muslim terrorist setting I.E.D.'s..
