about

Is a protest song written purely as a howl of disgust at what’s going on in the Amazon rainforest under the Bolsanaro regime.
The anger of the lyric focuses not only
on the man with the money and military strength to burn a rainforest for profit but also from the passivity of the people who are prepared to elect demagogues in the first place.

lyrics

For Bolsonaro

Have you heard about Bolsonaro?
and what he’s doing in the Matto grosso
Next time you get a severe
asthma attack
thats because
one more hectares been cleared
and turned to ash

Yes The man is a virus
and if you dont
kill it I will
yes I will
So somebody quick get a shot
& fly to Brazil

cos everyday that that man is in place
I’m finding it harder & harder to face
the knowledge
the will of the many can’t overturn
a politician prepared to stand by
while the rainforest burn

Yes The man is a virus
& if you cant kill it
I will
yes I will
so someone please get a shot
& fly to Brazil

Well I’ve been down before
but truly
never so low
so low

Now I’m praying
with each passing day for us all

and the Matto Grosso
and the Matto Grosso
