The eagle perched on the flying pole He arched around the wire This isn't what we intended for you Wake up, no don't lie Mother what have we done to you Mother can we make it up to you Mother what can we do to start anew Hear now what I am saying If just for your own sake To balance out your portion You must put back what you take
Mother what have we done to you Mother Can we make it up to you, mother What Can we do to start anew And why can't it be Like it's been to mother For each other to live We just all have to give Mother what have we done to you Mother can we make it up to you, mother What can we do to start anew
