Corporate Dragons - the Coast Road Song
Chorus: Walking along a coast road, looking out to sea
Feel the breath, the life, that's out there
The Oceans calling me -
An otter pride, O'er an eagle's cry, remind
Of kin we once have been
It is business without ethics, informs our children's dreams
- dead zones, oil and plastics - absorb too much C02
- censors the spoils of beauty
- smother the whale of a mammals sound,
- muzzle the free who've been run a-ground -
& sweetness turns to late night screams -
parental comfort with ancient lies - un-intentially
"It'll be all right, there's no need to cry,
we are here tonight, we'll take care of all your needs"
Chorus
How mighty is that dragon's fire
Will we be strong enough to face it's ire-
Will we touch into the deep profound,
Or turn around, and close our eyes,
To sleep at night - And lose the earth to greed.
Chorus
# - Jo McKay (polar Jo)
