Homeless Penguins

For thousands of years
they have lived on the Ice
now their lives are on the skids
as the Ice keeps melting

For thousands of years
they have lived in the desert
now their lives are being blown apart
as the Oil keeps diminishing

For thousands of years
they have lived in the ponds
now their lives are nee deep
as predators move in

Everyone is homeless
Looking for the promised land
that flows with milk and honey
And a life Oh so grand

For thousands of years
we've fought over who
owns what where and when
Not one of us is safe

We've murdered, razed, taken captive
raped land,women alike
poured pollution into every orrifice
atmosphere and space

Still we hope for a solution
when in reality the planet is dying
we've one hope left
prepare to evacuate this earth

Everyone is homeless
Looking for the promised land
that flows with milk and honey
And a life Oh so Grand

Man just dosent get it
this earth is not our home
we are just here to make a choice
The lords house, or beyond the thunderdome.

The earth is His Footstool
we are caretakers of this place
we mucked it up
times nearly up........

The Ice is melting and the Penguins are homeless.
