Let
Our Land Be The One
(Stephen Duffy)
Are there trees
in your street?
Is there grass
beneath your feet?
Let our land be
the one
Does the tap at
your sink
Give you water
fit to drink?
Let our land be
the one
Do our arms
welcome our friends?
Are our
passports valid?
The dreams we
had,
Awake now empty
handed
And with the
wealth to guarantee
A healthy life
for all
Why not prove we
have the grace
To catch the
ones who fall
Oh woh hey hey
Let our land be
the one
Do we offer
peace of mind?
Are we helpful
to our blind?
Let our land be
the one
Where kids are
safe out in the park
And she can walk
out after dark
Let our land be
the one
The city street
the market square
Should offer
little danger
To friend or foe
with silver spoon
Or traveller and
stranger
Should every
drop of water yet
Be forced to
make a profit
While the others
still poison the earth
Let us be the
first to stop it
Oh woh hey hey
Let our land be
the one
Oh woh hey hey
Let our land be
the one
