What Have We Done

In the days of old the trees stood tall and green
We cut them to the ground one by one
Now the air is getting thin, it's hard to breathe
We stand in wonder: What have we done

What have we done
What did we do it for
What's gone is gone
Can't get it back no more
There's a trickle in the sand where the river used to run
We stand in wonder: What have we done

There's a four lane highway winding through the hills
18 wheelers running day and night
The land was sold for greenback dollar bills
And the night is lit up by the factory lights

What have we done
What did we do it for
What's gone is gone
Can't get it back no more
There's a trickle in the sand where the river used to run
We stand in wonder: What have we done

With loud machines and ax in hand
What if in the end we're cutting off the branch we're standing on

What have we done
What did we do it for
What's gone is gone
Can't get it back no more
There's a trickle in the sand where the river used to run
We stand in wonder: What have we done
We stand in wonder: What have we done
