    This song asks, "What happens when the last tree is cut down?" Let's hope we never find out. For our sakes, let's find a more balanced way of living. Whatever your views on the environment, this song needs listening!

    Story Behind the Song
    From Brigitte Hallert:

    "Burining down the rainforests, destroying our ecosystems as I write this seems to be the most ludicrous endeavor yet of mankind's accomplishments. All in the name of big profits for the cattle industry. What a nuisance. One more reason to be a vegetarian besides many others."

    Lyrics
    Can you hear the angel call,
    The earth is heading for a fall.
    We don't know what we can do.
    We see the fires burning.
    We see the fires burning.
    We see the fires burning,
    At night.

    Can you hear the children cry,
    Their future is about to die.
    They don't know what they can do.
    They watch the fires burning,
    They watch the fires burning,
    They watch the fires burning,
    At night.

    INSTRUMENTAL

    We tell our children now,
    They have to live,
    In this world somehow.
    We don't know what we can do.
    To stop the fires burning,
    To stop the fires burning,
    To stop the fires burning,
    At night.

    They watch the fires burning,
    They watch the fires burning,
    They watch the fires burning,
    At night.
