Intro : (x2)

M other of us all

P lace of our birth

H ow can we stand aside

A nd watch the rape of the world

T his the beginning of the en d

T his is the most heinous of cr imes

I t's the deadliest of sins

T he greatest violation of all t ime

M other of us all

P lace of our birth

W e all are witness

To the r ape of the world

(2x)

Y ou've seen her stripped mi ned

Y ou've heard of bombs exploded underground

Y ou know the sun shi nes

H otter than ever before

M other of us all

P lace of our birth

W e all are witness

To the r ape of the world

(2x)

S ome claim to have crowned her

queen

With cities of concrete and steel

B ut there is no glory no h onor

I n what results

From the r ape of the world

M other of us all

P lace of our birth

W e all are witness

To the r ape of the world

(2x)

S he has been clear-cut

S he has been dumped on

S he has been poisoned and beaten up

A nd we have been witness

To the r ape of the world

M other of us all

P lace of our birth

H ow can we stand aside

And watch the r ape of the world?

(2x)

I f you look you'll see it with your own eyes

I f you listen y ou will hear her cries

I f you care you will stand and testify

A nd stop the r ape of the world

(This verse is played a bit funkier)

St op the ra pe of the world

M other of us all
