Evil Wind

we have seen it a hundred times
mother earth still bears the ugly scars
from Nevada to the Sinai
from Bikini atolls to Nagasaki
it carried illness, it carried death
it roamed in the streets the wind born in the west
laments are heard as kingdoms fell
desolated roads and highways

because we've seen it a hundred times
Mother earth still bears the ugly scars
from south Australia to chernobyl
From Alamo Gordo to Hiroshima

and the rivers have no fish
and the plains have no green
we've been all taken
by the evil wind

Smitten are the lands
what should we do know?
the evil wind passed like a flood
through highest and thickest walls
no door will keep it out
no bolt can turn it back
we played with fire
we got burnt down
because we have seen it a hundred times
and we can't see Mother Earth's scars
it's all around us it's blowing hard
