Our green and pleasant land
\nWorth fighting over
\nOur fathers and our grandfathers
\nWere there<\/p>\n
Digging with their bare hands
\nIn the fertile earth
\nPlanting crops that everyone
\nCould share<\/p>\n
And now its being bull dozed
\nThe drills and pads are coming
\nTearing through the earth the flint the clay
\nInto the shale
\nTo where the so called natural gas may be
\nThe park land where we played
\nAll our hopes and wishes they derail<\/p>\n
For now it all is designated fracking land
\nTainted air is all that we shall get
\nGoing forward Toxics in the aquifers
\nThats the new scenario they have set<\/p>\n
Slaves will be brought in to to the dirty work
\nSecurity brought in to make us see
\nEverything they ruin in our neighbourhood
\nIn the end is good for you and me<\/p>\n
Where once our wood was green and filled with wild folk
\nWe shall see great lakes of toxic stew
\nBarren land will occupy our only dreams
\nWe will be taught to enjoy the fracking view<\/p>\n
A list as long as so many arms is being used
\nChemicals with unpronounceable names
\nVast amounts of water will be wasted
\nAnd we are to believe now all their claims<\/p>\n
Its wrong at every level but few are listening
\nReality shows de population gains
\nCredence in The sick minds of the under dogs
\nWe are only numbers better off in chains<\/p>\n
When we start to protest we are terrorists
\nAny reason to get us off their backs
\nThey can come and ruin our existence
\nAnd we must knuckle down and face the facts<\/p>\n
The government are themselves, only puppets
\nGetting orders from the ruling group
\nAnd reigning down their orders to us minions
\nWho live an die in the great toxic soup<\/p>\n
All this may sound overly dramatic
\nBut I believe there is logic to my rhyme
\nWe will see the green fields of old England
\nTransformed into a hell on earth this time<\/p>\n
You are basically our slaves now
\nYou do what we say
\nIf you are sick from the carcinogens
\nYou can always move away<\/p>\n
And if you choose to stay here
\nAnd theres damage to your land
\nWhat you must remember
\nAnd completely understand<\/p>\n
Is its your loss
\nIts your price to pay
\nFor our collective aid
\nEverything belongs to us
\nThats our stock in trade<\/p>\n
This is a gory story
\nThe tories and their kings
\nSay If the fracking kills you
\nThats when you get your wings<\/p>\n
Your names go on the marble rock
\nTo be remembered by
\nThe future slaves as they are born
\nSo in their lives they apply<\/p>\n
The same indoctrination
\nAnd all done with a smile
\nToxic wastelands earthquakes
\nAnd terrorists on trial<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
