I've got a trillion tons of clay To mold and shape in my own way I'm going to build a thing of worth I'm going to build a better Earth A world where troubles don't abide Where human rights are not denied Where all the races live as one Where peace can never be undone
I did it before, and I'll do it again Set things in place, and let it begin Once in a while... a guiding touch Creating change doesn't take that much 'Cause change is what that planet needs I'll tend the soil and sow the seeds I'll give that world a second chance To rise above it's decadence
(7 days and 4.3 billion years later)
What went wrong? Earth is the same. What it was once, it again became I gave Man rivers, sparkling and pure But now, they smell like an open sewer My beautiful sky; so lovely and blue Is now a smoky, acidic brew I gave Man a mind to out-think his greed But, he used it to win, not to succeed
