Neil Young + Promise Of The Real - A Rock Star Bucks A Coffee Shop

"A Rock Star Bucks a Coffee Shop"

"A rock star bucks a coffee shop
Yeah, I want a cup of coffee
But I don't want a GMO
I'd like to start my day off
Without helpin' Monsanto
Ask Starbucks if coffee has GMO
Monsanto let our farmers grow what they want to grow
When the people of Vermont voted to label food with GMOs
So they would know what was in what the farmer grows
Monsanto and Starbucks through the grocery manufacturers alliance
Sued the state of Vermont to overturn the people's will
Monsanto and Starbucks, mothers want to know what they feed their children"



"Monsanto Years"

"When you shop for your daily bread and walk the aisles of Safeway
Find a package to catch your eye that makes you smile at Safeway
Choose a picture of an old red barn on a field of green
With the farmer and his wife and children, to complete the scene at Safeway
The family seeds they used to save were gifts from God not Monsanto
Their own child grows ill near the poisoned crop
While they work on, they can't find an easy way to stop Monsanto
Give us this day our daily bread, and let us not go with Monsanto"
