John Butler Trio Earthbound Child lyrics

Earthbound child, earthbound child
Come up with the shit, I'm the earthbound child
Earthbound child, earthbound child
Come up with the shit, I'm the earthbound child

Earthbound child, earthbound child
Lock onto the shit 'cause you're the earthbound child
Earthbound child, earthbound child
Lock onto the shit 'cause you're the earthbound child

What goes up
They say is coming down
I got my head in the sky
And my roots in the ground

I'm not patriotic man
For what it's worth
I pledge allegiance to this land
And my Mother Earth

What I am, I said is what I be

I be damned if you cut down all those trees
Clearfelling all this good land, I do see
We'll all be damned if you cut down all those trees

What I am, I said is what I am
I be damned if I stone cold killer man
In the name of a flag, a patriotic game
You got blood on your hands it ain't me to blame

Earthbound child, earthbound child
Come up with the shit, I'm the earthbound child
Earthbound child, earthbound child
Come up with the shit

Everybody crying but they don't know why
Well don't look up now there's a hole in the sky
And if we don't change soon everybody gonna die
You better jump ship now you better hope you can fly
