I was born on planet earth |
|
the rotating ball where man comes first |
|
it's been around for a long, long time |
|
but now it's time to watch it die |
|
I saw a man on my big blue screen |
|
he ruled the world economy |
|
he said the rich would never concede |
|
but some day soon he'll be put to sleep |
|
I've seen the life of the forest green |
|
and adaptations of the deep blue seas |
|
and who knows who is the fittest |
|
they will all soon be put to rest |
|
On a plunging flight and we're sitting |
|
in the pilots seat in the midst of life |
|
people on a dark horizon praying |
|
somebody will save their lives |
|
I was born on planet earth |
|
at a drastic time full of plastic mirth |
|
and everyday I've seen increasing signs |
|
and you would too if you'd opened your eyes |
|
you had a chance you did not try |
|
so now it's time to watch it die |
