Century of Shame
When the birds are spilling down from the sky
And all the ocean dwellers are floating
Human carelessness and greed will be why
It's the environment we are choking
Everyday we continue provoking
Raping the the planet that keeps us alive
Damage is massive and trivialized
There's no species as covetous as us
A century of shame we symbolize
Always wanting more, it's never enough
