about

I wrote this song to sing at rallies against Holtec discharging 1,000,000 gallons of radioactive water into the Hudson River. The company's C.E.O. collects cars. He owns one car worth $4,000,000. Just saying....

lyrics

I look at this river
I see beauty and light
I see people with picnics
I see herons in flight
they look at the same thing
they look at this river
they see money, money, money, money

I look at this river
I see childhood memories
imagine tribes who came before
I see history
they look at the same thing
they look at this river
they see money, money, money, money

money radiating, money multiplying
if stocks are climbing, who cares who is dying

we gather together
we shout and we fight
we meet to write letters
keep our eyes on the prize
we look at this river
we see wealth, we see strife
we look at this river
we see water is life
they look at the same thing
they look at this river
they see money, money, money, money
