VANESSA PARADIS LYRICS - Silver And Gold

"Silver And Gold"



How many children must die

How many rivers run dry

How many angels must cry

For silver and gold



Why don't we learn

From our past

How many more years

Will we last

Life is just moving so fast

For silver and gold



How much more time

Can we waste

How much more land

Be defaced

'Cause soon we will all be erased

For silver and gold



'Cause our earth should last forever

And our lives forever on

For God gave us all to partake

Why can we just learn to relate

We're pissing on our children's face

For silver and gold
