Where have all the flowers gone?
Why have the bees tired of honey?
Whatever happened to the whale’s song?
Do we realise now we can’t eat money?

When the last of the trees have turned to currency
That’s when the birds will all stop singing
When will we tire of this grave we keep on digging?
And realise how we can’t eat money

Remember how we stole from the ocean
To float in the belly of the beast
Hear mother weep coz she failed to teach
The truth about how we can’t eat money
