Analysis of New ways of thinking
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
Need new ways of thinking; I heard him say..
Oceans are telling
What can we do?
Evidence
Mounting
New ways
Can't save
Us from our
Humanity.
Problems are mounting
Won't go away
New ways of
Thinking
Bring
Back
The old
Shrinking base
World being sold
All of our thinking
Won't change a thing
Possible
Only
With
Him.
