Walking through a city tunnel of graffiti
Gazing at the frantic ravings of our time
Suddenly a truth was staring right at me
And this is what it said
We are behind enemy lines

For a walk in the forest,
Will you throw us all in jail?
For the myth of employment,
Will you blaze the final trail?
For a chance to use your power
Will you strike the lethal spark?
For a handful of timber,
Will you take our national park?

What about the trees falling,
Don't you think they've got a story?
I'll tell you a story about a living forest

Well we camped in the evening and sent out our scouts
and they soon returned to dispel all our doubts
seemed there was devastation
were once there was trees
loggers had been through like some terrible disease
Well the coppers came in and they showed us the door
even though it was state forest and they was breaking the law
and Dura says well I've seen some clear fells but this one's a beauty.
When injustice is the law, resistance is a duty.
