Jeremy And Rebecca - Why Strive lyrics

VERSE 1 Have you ever seen a haughty cloud proud of its position in the sky Do mountain ranges tower high to remind us of our lesser size Have canyons grand and oceans wide rivaled over bragging rights Do land and sea vie for boundary Is it foolish to believe they think on better things CHORUS Why do we strive And work so hard to gain the world Why must we try to prove our worth To rule the earth, why strive VERSE 2 Does Saturn wear her rings to flaunt her wealth around the universe Do comets dash the sky to make us stare Has morning ever picked a fight with an up-and-coming moonlit night And why on earth are there so many stars Could it be wrong to think it's just because there are CHORUS Why do we strive And work so hard to gain the world Why must we try to prove our worth To rule the earth, why strive BRIDGE Is our planet green with envy Of a sun, red with jealousy Over stars who burn for so much more What's it for, why do we fight Clash and collide and agonize Why do we strive, Why do we fight CHORUS Why do we strive And work so hard to gain the world Why must we try to prove our worth To rule the earth Why do we strive And work so hard to gain the world Why must we try to prove our worth To rule the earth, why strive Why do we strive, why do we fight We labor, we labor in vain (repeat) We work so hard, we work so hard (repeat)
