about

Feat. Tony J. Jelencovich (Transport League)

lyrics

Coastal waters, estuaries, open seas –
Fishing grounds depleted through centuries
Barely twenty-five percent still intact
Needs increasing, no-one seems to react

Set it out at night, pull it in at dawn
Scoop them up by the ton

No matter how much seafood's sold
The by-catch will be hundredfold
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll
What will survive from days of old?
Nothing but slime and water mold
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll

Bottom trawlers scraping the ocean bed
Frail habitats crushed and left for dead
Driftnet vessels making their foray
Catching and killing all that gets in their way

No matter how much seafood's sold
The by-catch will be hundredfold
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll
What will survive from days of old?
Nothing but slime and water mold
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll

Set it out at night, pull it in at dawn
Scoop them up by the ton

What will survive from days of old?
Nothing but slime and water mold
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll
Fading at an alarming rate –
All gone by 2048
Unrestrained and out of control
Overfishing is taking its toll
