Song | Gaia (Album Version) |
Artist | James Taylor |
Album | Hourglass |
Notes: | |
Jt on sony.com:there is a theory suggested by the planetologist john lovelock, that life (on earth) is one inter connected, self regulating organism (watch out). he named it the gaia theory aft | |
E ancient greek earth goddess (evidently). | |
Your basic tree huggers anthem. | |
The sky was light and the land all dark | |
The sun rose up over central park | |
I was walking home from work | |
Gaia | |
The petal sky and the rosy dawn | |
The world turning on the burning sun | |
Sacred wet green one we live on | |
Gaia | |
Run run run run said the automobile and we ran | |
Run for your life take to your heels | |
Foolish school of fish on wheels | |
Gaia | |
Turn away from your animal kind | |
Try to leave your body just to live in your mind | |
Leave your cold cruel mother earth behind | |
Gaia | |
As if you were your own creation | |
As if you were the chosen nation | |
And the world around you just a rude and | |
Dangerous invasion | |
Gaia | |
Someone's got to stop us now | |
Save us from us gaia | |
No one's gonna stop us now | |
We thought we ought to walk awhile | |
So we left that town in a single file | |
Up and up and up mile after mile after mile | |
We reached the tree line and i dropped my pack | |
Sat down on my haunches and i looked back down | |
Over the mountain | |
Helpless and speechless and breathless | |
Gaia | |
Pray for the forest pray to the tree | |
Pray for the fish in the deep blue sea | |
Pray for yourself and for god's sake | |
Say one for me | |
Poor wretched unbeliever | |
Someone's got to stop us now | |
Save us from us gaia | |
No one's gonna stop us now |
