    Rape of the World - Tracy Chapman

    Mother of us all
    Place of our birth
    How can we stand aside
    And watch the rape of the world

    This the beginning of the end
    This the most heinous of crimes
    This the deadliest of sins
    The greatest violation of all time

    Mother of us all
    Place of our birth
    We all are witness
    To the rape of the world

    You've seen her stripped mined
    You've heard of bombs exploded underground
    You know the sun shines
    Hotter than ever before

    Mother of us all
    Place of our birth
    We all are witness
    To the rape of the world

    Some claim to have crowned her
    A queen
    With cities of concrete and steel
    But there is no glory no honor
    In what results
    From the rape of the world

    Mother of us all
    Place of our birth
    We all are witness
    To the rape of the world

    She has been clear-cut
    She has been dumped on
    She has been poisoned and beaten up
    And we have been witness
    To the rape of the world

    Mother of us all
    Place of our birth
    How can we stand aside
    And watch the rape of the world

    If you look you'll see it with your own eyes
    If you listen you will hear her cries
    If you care you will stand and testify
    And stop the rape of the world

    Stop the rape of the world
    Mother of us all
    Mother of us all
    Mother of us all
    Mother of us all...
