Yesteryear Lyrics - Singles - Paisley Brain Cells

Old man bristlecone, please hear my plea: 

Draw from your wealth of knowledge from the last ten centuries 

Help me to tell my brothers and my sisters too 

We've got to save our planet - and here's what we've got to do 

We've got to: 

Manage our resources, protect our atmosphere 

Leave a planet for our children like the man of yesteryear 

Yesteryear 

I don't see how they do it - rape our mother and her skies 

All in the name of money and feed us with a pack of lies 

I want to swim in the ocean and make castles in the sand 

Not swim in all this garbage - people you've got to understand 

We've got to: 

Manage our resources, protect our atmosphere 

Leave a planet for our children like the man of yesteryear 

Yesteryear 

This is a simple song from a simple man 

It brings a simple message - a message with a simple plan 

We've got to clean up our oceans, we've got to clean up our skies 

We've got to make corporations open up their fucking eyes 

We've got to: 

Manage our resources, protect our atmosphere 

Leave a planet for our children like the man of yesteryear 

Yesteryear
