Ignorance Is Blind

Due to the development of land millions of birds and animals are dispossessed in the World every day
And this does seem a sad thing for to have to say
And of much of this development there is not any need
Most of the extinction of birds and animals is caused by human greed

For the extinction of rare species of wildlife cats and foxes are not all to blame
Far greater environmental foes than they are quite easy to name
They are known collectively as developers their workers clear land for financial gain
Why they abuse the Earth Mother who feeds us beyond reason to explain

Most of the creatures dispossessed from land clearing do not survive for long
Most of them cannot claim new territories Nature is ruled by the physically strong
Destruction of natural habitat for wildlife is such a horrible thing
Very soon there will not be any birds left for to sing

Thousands of trees being cut down every day Worldwide
Habitat for wildlife is being needlessly destroyed
And the main culprits of species extinction are known as human kind
Greed comes from ignorance and ignorance is blind.
