Our future is just around the corner
Our future is growing warmer
These ice caps are getting rather flat
And these rats are getting pretty fat

The air is getting smokey
Lungs are getting crokey
Viruses are mostly deadly
Missiles are getting armed and ready

We've got our heads through the noose
Our neighbour's are becoming extinct too
Theses animal that are brought to the brink
We need to think

What we are doing to this ground
Else we gonna sink
Standing on speckled little mounds
Thinking of what we knew before
When we could of made life okay and the earth round
We could make it that way today
But too many of us have this desire for more
If we go too far, we won't be able to live anymore

Like we used too
With such grace
What we used to do
When we weren't winning the race
When we weren't sinning and stuffing our face
In what the world provided
In what the world confided in us
We rot this world provided for us
Said it was never enough

We've got our head through the noose
I'm ready for us to lose
I'm gonna try make a move
But you can do whatever you choose to

Open your eyes
And remind your kind
That we have to find an answer
Else we all gonna die
