Testament - Greenhouse Effect Lyrics






Fools the ones who stray, the rain forest burns away
Know what to believe, this is the air we breathe
So the world we know is dying slow in South America
Flames are burning down, all the trees to the ground

Time is running low, we can't stay no more
Wealth these people see, fight for eternity
Lies they televise paid by their government
There on! It's lingers on
And they don't even care in they...

Seal the Planet's fate
Crimes they perpetrate
Wasting precious land
It's time to take a stand

Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost?
Environmental holocaust... repeat

Foes, these people go, someone destroyed their home
Plagued with disease, left praying on their knees
Laws protect the land, social justice in demand
Smoke it fills the air into the atmosphere
Now it's time to see a cycle of a tragedy
On! It lingers on, and they don't even care if they

Seal the Planet's fate
Crimes they perpetrate
Wasting precious land
It's time to take a stand

Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost?
Environmental holocaust... repeat

    Fucking Terrible Metallica\Megadeth clones

    d.... ....

    Taste is subjective, yada yada yada... But Testament>>Megadeth>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Metallica
    No, but seriously, Alex Skolnick? James Murphy? Chuck Billy? Masterclass.
    It's all good though
    No reason to listen to only one of these bands.
    I assume you like Metallica and Megadeth, so if they're "clones", why would you dislike it? So petty, it's like those "you either like beyonce or britney spears". Don't bring that crap to metal, dude.
    I'm fully aware you'll completely disregard everything I said, by the way. Just felt like commenting anyway.

  11. D.... T....

    Alex Skolnick is masterful here.

  39. V.... ....

    ever heard of slipultura?

  40. A.... o....

    @SashDeathrash Don't be hating on me and other gays. I'm gay and love this song. You can only hate the stereotype embracing pains in the ass. They're fair game. Heavy Metal FTW!

  41. C.... K....

    I don't really care what anyone thinks to be honest. This is the song that made me buy my first cassette from these guys. Practice was just icing on the cake.

  42. 6.... ....

  46. G.... ....

    @MadcapMacabre I was just kiddin guys =P.. But thx tho

  47. G.... ....

    This shows Testament didn't copy shit.. They were ahead of anything and anyone else, I mean, who sings about global warming IN FUCKING 1989 ???!!!

    G.... ....

    GanjaPharmzor annihilator - stonewall (1990) sacred Reich - crimes against humanity (1990) Nuclear Assault - critical mass (1989)

    G.... ....

    GanjaPharmzor seems like the years of 1989-1990 were the years of environmental thrash hahaha

    G.... ....

    Nuclear Assault - Critical Mass

  48. P.... J....

    @widdow66 all Testament are Metal gems!

  49. S.... ....

    @mario1136 Not so bad, seeing as that's the best way to learn a song.

  50. V.... ....

    @TheHipsutipsu toi oli sun elämäs pähkinänkuoressa?

  51. T.... ....

    iha täyttä hevon paskaa

  52. Q.... M....

    Does anyone have tabs or a cover of this song? I've scoured the bowels of googls, and nothing.

  53. J.... F....

    @metalfan1100

    Please stop acting like this; you're only making an idiot of yourself by claiming a musical genre can be affected based on the popularity of others.

    If you cared to take your fucking head out of your ass you would know the metal community has been expanding imensely over the past decade with the advent of the internet being used extensively i.e., it hasn't been ruined at all, just because its mainstream representations are usually lacking in quailty.

  54. J.... F....

    @metalfan1100 Who gives a flying fuck what other people listen to?

  55. L.... ....

    @metalfan1100 A true fail

  56. b.... ....

    Testallica FTW Slayadeth!!!

  57. V.... ....

    @metllica333 I suggest you start with the new order album it sounds pretty much what testaments about

  58. V.... ....

    @metalfan1100 No i wont thumbs on this! thats a pretty self evident opinion -.-! AND no one can ever ruin good music! it will still remain supreme in true music listeners ears. modern day music is soulless shit!

  59. P.... M....

    @vojaczek666 me to,

  60. M.... ....

    please vote up on this comment if you believe rap, and techno, and all that deadly hazardous trash has ruined the great art of metal!

    METAL FOREVER

  61. A.... ....

    good song...but I'm fairly certain trees are a renewable resource......

  62. B.... W....

    AIR Guitar the shit out of this song !!!!!!!

  63. B.... W....

    Air guitar the shit of this song !!!

  64. J.... C....

  65. V.... G....

  66. K.... ....

    @pullbackbaby lol I have been playing guitar for a few months now, it's fun as hell! Thanks for the advice, though.

  67. K.... ....

    @pullbackbaby Well I'm sure there can be a more creative title than just "Bird Deaths" XD But yeah that's still a great song idea. I'm not a musician, (only 15 right now lol), but I hope to be one and I want to be a great songwriter so I'm kind of practicing, you know. Always looking for ideas of songs to write about. I already wrote one when I was bored in German class the other day XD It's about Vikings!

  68. K.... ....

    @pullbackbaby Wow, that is genius, man! Do I have your permission to write a song out of that?

  69. T.... ....

    Being green is METAL!!!!! haha Testament are the beez neez!

  70. c.... ....

    THIS SONG IS AS PROPHETIC NOW AS IT WAS 20 YEARS AGO

  71. 4.... ....

    @IronCobra95

  72. C.... R....

  73. I.... ....

    first 2 seconds sound like regular people by pantera

  74. V.... ....

    @thrallsbrood thats a pretty sharp notice

  75. I.... I....

    @Vaginaattori for Mother Gaia will surely repel us if we do not.

  76. h.... ....

    Wow. Quite the activist band. I like it! I don't normally expect this from metal.

  77. b.... ....

    @widdow66 and Souls of Black man

  78. H.... ....

    @iDrum37 i dont think youve heard all their stuff then, they had a death sound on the last album I listened to

  79. p.... ....

    amazing song with heart and passion.

  80. j.... ....

    great lyrics

  81. T.... ....

    Old school metal rules not like the shitty new metal band nowadays.Hail Alex Skolnick,Eric Peterson,Chuck Billy,Greg Christian and Louie Clemente

  82. q.... ....

    "Remember to recycle your mind" :}

  83. m.... ....

    ....wut?

  84. a.... ....

    The Gathering is pretty good, it has Dave Lombardo playing drums on it. Still not as good as their early stuff.

  85. S.... ....

    Thrash it up

  86. T.... ....

    Fuck Testaments death metal bull shit. And the Formation of Damnation is decent, got a little old after about 10 or so listens. Any of thier first five albums are pretty damn good.
