The Navajo

The Navajo
Have suffered so
And America must pay
The first people were
the guardians
And to be treated in this
way
Neglected after corporates
Mined uranium there
and left their filth all over
Navajo land
aware
That it would cause
great problems with
sickness and with health
A proud and honest people
sucked dry of their wealth
Contaminated water
Contaminated air
Miscarriages and children
born deformed, it isn’t fairThe Corporates thought
only about profits
And ran off leaving
The Navajo to face
Radioactive rubbish
from the many mines
Broken and left all over
the place
American Corporates really are
a rotten bunch, the gall
to leave a precious people
and not to care at all
Despite all sorts of diseases
around this awful mess
Arizona and America
You’ve caused them so much stress

Now the Navajo are dying
promises received
but nothing has been done for them
They have been deceived
Obama and the top brass
should get off their arse and go
Just See what is happening
to the precious Navajo

Fine these Corporate cretins
Make them pay their way
Obama has the power
and bluster, what is there to say
They, were the first people
Can’t you understand
And now you treat them badly
Rubbishing their land

They really have no future
And if are to die
America will suffer so
for such cruelty, and why?
Why are you so selfish
These people were the first
Nobody deserves this

Nobody!
