We're Green

From the north to the south, from sea to shining sea
From the banks of the Ohio, to the foot of the Rockies
People are recognizing that there's another way
They are standing up and they are starting to say.

Chorus:
We're Green, we're gonna shout it
We're Green, no doubt about it
We're Green, we're gonna tout it
We're Green, we're green, we're green

Republicans and Democrats are pretty much the same
Both of those parties play that money game
Business interests are what they answer to
But the Green Party is for me and you, yes.

Chorus

The environment is at risk, we all know it's true
In spite of what the other guys will tell you
Business profits rely on abusing the sea and land
But the Greens fight for the Earth and for you and me, yes.

Chorus

Universal health care, civil liberties
These things seems so basic to you and me
Democrats and Republicans fight against these things
Which is why we all are starting to sing..

Chorus

It seems surprising in this day and age
Why anyone would be against a living wage
It is bad for business, that is what we hear
Perhaps the time for maximum wage is drawing near, yes..

Chorus

We've got some smarts and we've got some sense
It doesn't take much to see the difference
The Green Party stands for something right
That is why we will sing it all day and night, yes..

Chorus
