Brothers Of Brazil - Mother Earth lyrics

Extra extra, the world is going insane Floods, tsunamis, earthquakes Mother nature is totally out of balance Do you know Tom Jobim, the great composer from Brazil? The guy who wrote "The Girl from Ipanema" He had a beautiful house up in the mountains And over there he wrote many beautiful standards Including "Waters of March" What he could not imagine is that the waters of january Would cause his home to vanish Destroying a village and taking the lives of over eight hundred people Mother earth, mother earth She gave you home (mother earth) She gave you life (mother earth) She gave you food (mother earth) And water to survive Where where where we are going (I don't know) How much can she take it (we should know) We just take take (don't give back) We just take take (don't give back) Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Where where where we are going (I don't know) How much can she take it (we should know) We just take take (don't give back) We just take take (don't give back) Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Where is the paradise I've made for you? For you! Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
