There's a peaceful battleship The Rainbow Warrior Sailing 'round the world to the shore Where the seals are cudgeled By them nasty furriers Till there ain't no more There's a whaler looking Like a mortal factory Harmless whales Are taken their lives Interfering dingies Of the Rainbow Warrior Are helping to survive Greenpeace Greenpeace Let and let live Greenpeace Greenpeace Seal skins can't forgive. (English spoken:) "Every nineteen minutes man explodes A harpoon in a whale's back The shrapnel from that grenade Slowly kills that beautiful mammal That was here forty million years Before all of us What right does man have to do this?"
