    Story Behind the Song
    the lyrics pretty much say it all,, i don't leave it too open for interpretation. as for the title,, it's named after the Dr. Suess story "The Lorax" in which two characters are walking in the desert towards eachother and they stop dead in eachothers tracks. One had always learned all his life always to walk north; not a step to the east, not a step to the west. The other had been taught all his life always to walk south; not a step to the west, not a step to the east. So they stand there, faced towards eachother with their arms crossed and years go by. a towns develops in the area and roads are built around them because they're too stubborn to reach a compromise.

    also, after becoming more educated on the conflict i recently changed the lyrics a bit, more twords the palestinian side. the words below are the revised lyrics,, the words you hear in the song are the old lyrics i don't agree with anymore.

    Lyrics
    how can anyone fight a holy war
    over land that's not even holy anymore?
    U.S. money doesn't justify theft
    past oppression gives no one the right to oppress

    Israel belongs to no faith
    Israel belongs to no race
    it's sadly in the hands of those filled with hate
    who have to oppress to govern a state

    a few lines of scripture give them ease
    when they wage war and say they want peace
    Yah Weh, God, or Allah's overtaken in shame
    cause his kids think they're right when they kill in his name

    Israel belongs to no faith
    Israel belongs to no race
    this ancient war is older than the sun
    where is another Gandhi when you need one?

    A mom will take a bomb to a shop and kill 3
    and bulldozers go over a grove of olive trees
    if that's not enough they'll bulldoze some homes
    but not without resistance from some kids and their stones

    Israel belongs to no faith
    Israel belongs to no race
    idiots govern in the middle east
    as long as they're in power there's no hope for peace
