Martin L. Gore - Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth

When she's on her best behaviour

Donґt be tempted by her favours

Never turn your back on mother earth



Towns are hurled from A to B

By hands that looked so smooth to me

Never turn your back on mother earth



Grasp at straws that don't want grasping

Gaze at clouds that come down crashing

Never turn you back on mother earth



Three days and two nights away from my friends

Amen to anything that brings a quick return

To my friends

To my friends



Never turn your back on mother earth



I'll admit i was unfaithful

But from now on i'll be more faithful

Never turn your back on mother

Never turn your back on mother

Never turn your back on mother earth
