Where There's Smoke

What folks don't know is where there's smoke
There's something sacred
Spirits can be good and bad
While fires burn in unspoken secret places
Peace pipes are passed
At the sun dances for days
Good things come
To those who sacrifice and pray

Some say where there's smoke there's a fire
But they just wanna cast the 1st stone
I say where there's smoke, there's smoke
And that's all I need to know

What people don't notice is where there's smoke
There's a mirror
A trick of the trade, a magical way
To see yourself clearer
There's plastic in the ocean
But out of sight is out of mind
Only you can prevent it
Give a hoot before you let 'em all die

Some say where there's smoke there's a fire
But they just wanna cast the 1st stone
I say where there's smoke, there's smoke
And that's all I need to know

Canoeing through a river of rubbish
While smokestacks scorch the sky
From factories all created by the evil white man
Garbage on the shoreline

Some of you think that where there's smoke
There's no respect
People throwing trash out of cars
It's no wonder Mother Earth is getting wrecked
Standing by a highway of smog
There's no good reason why
If people start it, they can stop it
It's enough to make an Indian cry

Some say where there's smoke there's a fire
But they just wanna cast the 1st stone
I say where there's smoke, there's smoke
And that's all I need to know

Trouble on the horizon
Rain cloud in the sky
What goes up, must come down
Tear drops never lie

Some folks can see that where there's smoke
There's a signal
A sign of a time when everyone is blind
To the destruction that they kindle
Some are stoked to keep America beautiful
Most just roll the dice
They're buying time on credit
And their kids will pay the price

Some say where there's smoke there's a fire
But they just wanna cast the 1st stone
I say where there's smoke, there's smoke
And that's all I need to know
