To be consumed by money
\nTo spend at any cost
\nTo completely destroy the environment
\nThat a forest can be lost
\nA persons home and garden
\nDestroyed because they do
\nWant to frack with
\nWhat is their new age fracking crew<\/p>\n
All paid so significantly
\nAnd rarely local men
\nLorries many hundreds
\nSecurity yes when
\nDo this lot clad in orange
\nOr yellow and exclaim
\nThat they are doing fracking
\nYes fracking by name<\/p>\n
And that any objections
\nIn the form of protectors who
\nWant to slow walk vehicles
\nTo slow their passage through
\nOr want to lock on bodies
\nTo try to make it feel
\nThat protectors have the right to speak
\nFor them they know its real<\/p>\n
A drill head on or near your property
\nOr a flare thats lit at night
\nOr your water being polluted
\nWell its just not right
\nThe air you breathe has methane
\nAnd benzene actually
\nAnd fracking spills are ruining
\nTheir walkways where you be<\/p>\n
For the mail to talk up ruffians
\nAnd criminals they must
\nBe mistaken for the protectors
\nAre obviously just
\nTo be concerned of their area
\nWhere they do belong
\nInstalling drills and fracking
\nOfcourse that is so wrong<\/p>\n
The equality of people
\nMust, come into mind
\nWhere we live and where we rest
\nIs where we ought to find
\nThe air we breathe
\nThe water, we drink
\nIt has to be
\npotable
\nAnd free from fracking liquids
\nActually<\/p>\n
To know your children are at risk
\nIs a basic human right
\nWhat parent wouldnt worry
\nWhen we are out at night
\nMethane clouds are forming
\nAnd water gradually
\nIs getting so polluted
\nWhere It should never be<\/p>\n
To see your daughters nose bleeds
\nAnd your grandmother whose chest
\nAll the family is suffering
\nCuadrilla knows whats best
\nAbout squirrelling their profits
\nTo tax havens may be so
\nBut caring about the foxes and the badgers
\nI think no<\/p>\n
Caring about the locals the children
\nIn the schools
\nCaring about the roads
\nAnd the Fracking done by fools
\nIs carving up the system
\nSo heavy are the loads
\nAnd noise there is so much of it
\nWhere they have their abodes<\/p>\n
The frackers being supported
\nBy the coppers like to see
\nThe protectors taken down a peg
\nArrested actually
\nAll this laying in the street
\nSo trucks cannot get through
\nCannot be allowed to happen
\nAnd these bastards we should screw<\/p>\n
Kettling us and pushing us about
\nAll this we see
\nWomen really knocked about
\nProtectors and violently
\nPushed aside and beaten on
\nNot given a chance
\nTo protest in their peaceful way
\nWithout a song and dance<\/p>\n
An assembly of people
\nOf different ages who
\nHave done their own research
\nAnd found these frackers
\nmisconstrue<\/p>\n
The papers who are lying
\nPaid, really to say
\nThey are being threatened
\nIn every single way
\nyes every sort of way
\nAn intimidation and it dont go
\nDislocated honourably
\nAs If we didnt know<\/p>\n
The frackers know disorder
\nIts all part of their game
\nShouting we are anarchists
\nThis is theur blame game
\nBut We are all together
\nWe shall not feel forlorn
\nWe love earth our provider
\nNight and day and Dawn<\/p>\n
We are here for perpetuity
\nEnding and lasting time
\nConstant and continual
\nAnd sometimes we shall climb
\nOn rigs on trucks on tankers
\nOr fences if we can
\nAnyway to slow their day
\nWe will do it man for man<\/p>\n
Bowland shale and cuadrilla
\nPart australian we know
\nWhsts been done in Brisbane
\nTo the farmers there a blow
\nTo grow crops for the msrketplace
\nWell everyones denied
\nThe pollutive practices
\nAll the waterless stock
\nOur children suffering nosebleeds
\nAnd the general shock<\/p>\n
Of losing what we live for
\nThe water and the air
\nThe environment around us
\nNow we see despair
\nAs trees are torn and dying
\nLaid to rest where we
\nAlong with the koala
\nAre no where near a tree<\/p>\n
These fools and their stake holders
\nAre,misguided they
\nDig huge long wells
\nWith awful smells
\nAnd the fracturing today
\nIs giving many inhabitants
\nStress illness and pain
\nThere is no permanence any more
\nJust the fracking noise again.<\/p>\n
And what can you do about it
\nPut up with it and try
\nTo ignore the daily nosebleeds
\nAnd why your wife does cry
\nWhy the children cannot sleep
\nAnd breathing is so bad
\nAnd its all to do with the fracking
\nAnd what comes off that vile pad<\/p>\n
The mail should be amongst us
\nShould realise how cold
\nwe are
\nIts dark these mornings
\nWhen some are far from par
\nBut still we brave the darkness
\nThe inclement weather to
\nWe Provide these fracking monsters
\nWith a light beyond the dew<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
