Lyrics"Where There's Smoke"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
What folks don't know is where there's smoke, there's something sacred Spirits can be good and bad, while fires burn in unspoken secret places Peace pipes are passed at the sun dances for days Good things come to those who sacrifice and pray Some say where there’s smoke there’s a fire but they just wanna cast the 1st stone I say where there’s smoke, there’s smoke, and that’s all I need to know What people don't notice is where there's smoke, there's a mirror A trick of the trade, a magical way to see yourself clearer There's plastic in the ocean, but out of sight is out of mind Only you can prevent it, give a hoot before you let 'em all die Some say where there’s smoke there’s a fire but they just wanna cast the 1st stone I say where there’s smoke, there’s smoke, and that’s all I need to know Canoeing through a river of rubbish, while smokestacks scorch the sky From factories all created, by the evil white man, garbage on the shoreline Some of you think that where there's smoke, there's no respect People throwing trash out of cars, it's no wonder Mother Earth is getting wrecked Standing by a highway of smog, there's no good reason why If people start it, they can stop it, it's enough to make an Indian cry Some say where there’s smoke there’s a fire but they just wanna cast the 1st stone I say where there’s smoke, there’s smoke, and that’s all I need to know Trouble on the horizon, rain cloud in the sky What goes up, must come down, tear drops never lie Some folks can see that where there’s smoke, there’s a signal A sign of a time when everyone is blind, to the destruction that they kindle Some are stoked to keep America beautiful, most just roll the dice They're buying time on credit, and their kids will pay the price Some say where there’s smoke there’s a fire but they just wanna cast the 1st stone I say where there’s smoke, there’s smoke, and that’s all I need to know Copyright © ℗ 2016 by Scott Cooley.
