My Father and Me
|
|||
|
|
by Mike Russello
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The great, big green trees,
|
|||
|
|
Go as far as the eye can see,
|
|||
|
|
Getting up at the crack of dawn,
|
|||
|
|
As you catch a glimpse of a passing fawn.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The silver streaked fish jump up,
|
|||
|
|
As the dew settles in a buttercup,
|
|||
|
|
With my pole and hook we go out to sea,
|
|||
|
|
Just my father and me.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As we take one more look,
|
|||
|
|
We bait our sharp hooks,
|
|||
|
|
We put it into the water so blue,
|
|||
|
|
As we catch a fish, shiny and new.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
On our trip home we look up high,
|
|||
|
|
Into the bright blue sky,
|
|||
|
|
Today we had a lot of fun,
|
|||
|
|
Just me, my dad, and the bright big sun.

Gone Forever

Where, oh where have they gone,
|
|||
|
|
How did the human race go wrong?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Once they were alive, now they are a memory,
|
|||
|
|
Once they were everywhere, now they're in a cemetery.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Yesterday they ran free, today they are dead,
|
|||
|
|
They were murdered so quickly, so bloody, so red.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Why did God create them if their destiny was to die?
|
|||
|
|
How could they disappear without a simple cry?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Earth was their home before we took it away,
|
|||
|
|
Why did we do take it in such a cruel and selfish way?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The end of nature is nearing,
|
|||
|
|
While the animals of the world are disappearing.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We will kill more, some without a blink,
|
|||
|
|
We're the next creatures on earth to become extinct.
