To Your Children's Children's Children
What will we say?
"We were spending your tomorrow
Living our today"?
What do we know about the real price they'll pay?
While we're spending their tomorrow
Living our today"?

We bleed them, Let's free them
We bleed them, Let's free them

Will we ever recognize the folly that we're doin',
A future desert planet, a raped and ravaged ruin?

We bleed her, Let's free her
We bleed her, Let's free her

What do we know of the real price they'll pay
Spending their tomorrow
Living our today"?

How will they know this day
when the world we know is gone
When corporations had their way
and the masses went along?

They bleed us, like Jesus
They bleed us, like Jesus

Will they know the precious few
who gave their lives attending to
what their leaders wouldn't do,
until the bill came due?

They bleed us, like Jesus
They bleed us, like Jesus

What do ya think would happen if he came back today,
What do you think could ever make him want to stay?
What do you think that he would have to say?
Or do you think that he would turn and walk away? Hey!

We bleed him, Let's free him
We bleed him, Let's free him

What do we know of the real price they'll pay,
While we're spending their tomorrow
living our today?
