You pour cement and call it a river

You say it's an improvement

Pocketing all the money

While the water grows stagnant

We pave more roads

To widen the path of progress

As we suffer in spirit

We are forced to regress

The time has come

You can no longer run away from the problem

Realise the situation

Open your eyes, crawl from the rubble

We got a case of Planet Trouble

The pursuit of wealth paves the fields of life

It's just business as usual in a world full of strife

We don't want your development

You ignore the laws of the government

Making deals with the local councils

To turn our rivers into cement

We are forced to regress

The time has come

You can no longer run away from the problem

Realise the situation

Open your eyes...
