Amazing Old Tree by BRUIT Lyrics
[Spoken word: If a Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front]
This is a piece of a big old tree. This tree probably sprouted just about the time Colombus sailed the Ocean Blue. It looks about 500 years old, somewhere in there. This tree probably sprouted just about the time Colombus sailed the Ocean Blue. You know, the suckers, if they could talk probably say it's been pretty boring up until about 75 years ago and all hell broke loose out here on the ridge and... and they started cutting them down, most of them are gone now so we won’t be seeing any of thеse for... at least another 500 yеars and that’s if we leave them alone. These are amazing old trees
[Instrumental]
The industry tends to call environmentalists radical. The reality is that 95% of the standing native forest in the United States had been cut down. It’s not radical to try and save the last 5%, what’s radical is logging 95%: this is radical
