Questions to ask an urban 4x4 driver

Chorus
Hey you, in your SUV
Showing off your property
In your gas guzzling, smart new car
Who the hell do you think you are?
Flattening the earth and poisoning the air
Why don't you care?

Do you know how many die in the fight
To get the oil to feed your heart's delight?
Do you know how many suffer
From Colombia to Nigeria?
Do you know how far the poison's spread
How many dead?

Chorus

Do you see the rivers running black
Or will you only turn your back?
Do you choke on the polluted air
or do you really just not care?
Do you know how many more must die
Or wonder why?

Chorus

Do you see the stricken fish and birds
Or hear the cries across the world
Are you afraid of sounds of war
Or do you just want more and more
Do you ever stop, or even try
To wonder why?

Barren earth, and poisoned sea
Is this how we want the world to be?
