Lyrics
We live in a world so full of hunger
We work in a world that is diseased
Sharing the air with people who are hungry
But not sharing food, not sharing guarantees
This inequity still brings me to my knees
I try to keep my look-good thing together
And fight all my indulgent tendencies
But even if I lean into denial, avoidance, distraction
This inequity still brings me to my knees
Someone made a robot, and there goes another job
Someone built a car that needs no driver
I used to say good morning to the gal who worked the bridge
Now my money disappears into a space that they call cyber
So you say that you are building a spaceship to the moon
You say you want to mine it, that's the goal
Have you never kissed a sweetheart when the moon was full
Or read Goodnight Moon to soothe your childlike soul?
Maybe this is my country, but this country is not mine
Maybe this is my friend, but this friend is not mine
Maybe this is my child, but this child is not mine
Maybe this is my world, but this world is not mine
Maybe this is my moon, but this moon is not mine
Do not mine, do not mine, do not mine, do not mine the moon
