O Bella Ciao (2017)

VERSE 1 Machines are digging, outside my window Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao Atlantic Sunrise pipeline coming right through my back yard. It's only four feet wide, epoxy coat inside Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao And it's crossing the Susquehanna, what could possibly go wrong? SOLO

VERSE 2 Men with money came, eminent domain Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao Promised profits, hid the losses, it's all about Marcellus Shale

The future will bring floods, toxic gas and mud. Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao When families lose their future, this land is not our land. SOLO 2

VERSE 3 Politicians say, it will bring us jobs, And it does, and it does (from out of state!) Fishing Creek will become a wasteland just waiting for the spill.

They will frack your farms, they will twist your arms Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao Have we learned nothing from the coal mines? Just another anthracite.
