The Developer

The Developer looks but he does not see
Any beauty at all in the flowering gum tree
If he had his way every tree would be cut down
For to make way for more houses and factories in the town

The Developer of the Greenies does not have nice things to say
Of adding to his vast profit they get in the way
He looks on every friend of Nature as his enemy
If he had his way he would cut down every tree

The praises of money the Developer does sing
To him an ugly factory built on land he has developed is a beautiful thing
In money and assets he is a billionaire
Wealthy developers like him are no longer that rare

The wealthy developer and his wife and family in the town's most expensive restaurant dine
And he only drinks the most expensive wine
And he hates every Greenie on his way they stand
Of adding to his billion by developing more land.
