Some so called true patriots the flag of their Country do wave
To honour the young who in war have died brave
But for me true patriots fight to save the trees from the chainsaw
And in so doing risk a term in prison by breaking human made law
Those who love their country love every tree
They are the true patriots it does seem to me
They never fight under their Nation's flag in Lands far away
But on the destruction of Nature's beauty they do have their say
My sort of true patriots do love their Country far more
Than those who fight in war for it on a foreign shore
They fight in a verbal way against greedy developers who cut the old trees down
To build more factories and houses on the outskirts of town
You have your opinions and that suits me fine
But your idea of a true patriot is quite different to mine.
