My friend Serena asked for a newer song...here's one.
ORLANDO
words and music by DINO ROMANELLI
How much progress can you take
How much money can you make
It's easy while it's flowing in
To cash the checks, forget the sin
You can taste it
Like metal in your mouth
While you waste it
Spreading ever southward to the sea
How can you be so at ease
Doing simply as you please
Does your conscience have its say
Or is it only in the way
You can sense it
Like the shadows in your dreams
You can't fence it
Spreading ever southward to the sea
It seems so unusual
That you should be so proud
It seems strange to me
That things like what you do should be allowed
It's sad to think what you have lost
Is the progress worth the cost
Do you not see, have you no shame
Do you see how you're to blame
