lyrics

Starlight diviner, funnel of forces
Cow horn deep under the ground
Stuffed with manure, the essence so pure
That no better brew has been found
In with the water, keep stirring forever
Until watching grass grow is twice as much fun
Now it’s your turn to stir and to learn
Five Hundred is fruitful for everyone

Just stir and keep stirring, then on to the spraying
Just stir and keep stirring, that’s what I am saying
But some people just never learn

Throughout the world, farmers keep burning
Scraping and raping the land
Cutting down trees with unparalleled ease
Turning good soil to sand
Chemical spraying, I hear someone saying
Let’s keep making hay, while the sun shines
Make a fortune today, drive life-forces away
Five hundred excuses for everyone

Just burn and keep burning, the experts are saying
And don’t bother learning, just keep over-grazing
But Steiner had other ideas

Starlight diviner, funnel of forces
Cow horn deep under the ground
Stuffed with manure, the essence so pure
That no better brew has been found
In with the water, keep stirring forever
Until watching grass grow is twice as much fun
Now it’s your turn to stir and to learn,
Five Hundred is fruitful for everyone

Just stir and keep stirring, then on to the spraying
And stop all the burning and stop overgrazing
Just stir and keep stirring, then on to the spraying
A new time for learning, that’s what I am saying
