Naked Earth - Fight To Save Our World lyrics

Was looking at a sky of blue But now it's turned to grey A whole lot darker now than yesterday Could it have been a dream Or a distant memory Cos things seem so much worse than they used to be Wandering on the beach Thought I would take a swim But signs are telling me I can't go in Says "Too much bacteria" When will it be cleared up The seas are big but they're not big enough For this abuse, seems it's just no use The time has come to change our way Though we should have yesterday Fight to save our world Saw a new car today Just like all the rest Using fossil fuel when solar's best People talk of change Running cars on batteries But it's prevented by oil companies Took a walk down to the creek But it's there no more Nothing but concrete from shore to shore No more fish that swim No more birds that sing Mankind keeps destroying everything For his own gain, it's just insane The time has come to change our way Though we should have yesterday Fight to save our world Fight to change the way we treat the air Fight bureaucracies that just don't care Fight to change the future of our children Fight to save the species that day by day we keep on k**in' Saw a group of kids Thought it looked OK But then I noticed that they weren't at play Was at the local school Ten kids in a fight Nine wrong surrounding one that's right (Mark Overby; 1994 Naked Earth Productions)
