JONI MITCHELL lyrics - Ethiopia Hot winds and hunger cries-Ethiopia Flies in your babies' eyes-Ethiopia Walking sticks on burning plains Betrayed by politics Abandoned by the rains On and on-the human need On and on-the human greed profanes Ethiopia-Ethiopia-Ethiopia Your top soil flies away-Ethiopia We pump ours full of poison spray-Ethiopia Between the brown skies and sprinkling lawns I hear the whine of chain saws Hacking rain forests down On and on-insanities On and on-Short sighted greed abounds Ethiopia-Ethiopia-Ethiopia Little garden planet-oasis in space Some hearts hurt-they can hardly stand it Famine phantoms at the garden gates Ethiopia-Ethiopia-Ethiopia Every Sunday on T.V.-Ethiopia You suffer with such dignity-Ethiopia A T.V. star with a P.R. smile Calls your baby "it" while strolling Through your tragic trials On and on-stupidity On and on-the basic needs are defiled Good air-good water-good earth Ethiopia-Ethiopia-Ethiopia Little garden planet-oasis in space Some hearts hurt-they can hardly stand the waste Ethiopia-Ethiopia-Ethiopia |
