Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

What goes up

They say is coming down

I got my head in the sky

And my roots in the ground

I'm not patriotic man

For what it's worth

I pledge allegiance to this land

And my Mother Earth



What I am

I said is what I be

I be damned if you cut down all those trees

Clearfelling all this good land.

I do see

We'll all be damned if you cut down all those trees

What I am

I said is what I am

I be damned if I stone cold killa man

In the name of a flag

A patriotic game

You got blood on your hands it ain't me to blame



Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the earthbound child

Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit



Everybody crying

But they don't know why

Well don't look up now there's a hole in the sky

And if we don't change soon everybody gonna die

You better jump ship now you better hope you can fly

Over population say we gotta face

You're gonna send us all away out to outerspace

Singing yippie hurray for the human race

I don't wanna live my life in no outer space



Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Earthbound Child

Come up with the shit I'm the Earthbound Child



I got six white candles

You know they're too hot to handle

You know I
