Meteor
I wonder if a dinosaur
Saw that mighty meteor
A blazing trail across prehistoric skies
Did it just keep doing
What a dinosaur would do?
How could it know that the time of the dinosaur
Was almost through?
I wonder if the orangutan
Saw the greedy hand of man
Tearing through the forest, clearing the land
Did it just keep doing
What an orangutan would do?
How could it know that the time of the orangutan
Was almost through?
We are like a meteor
Clearing wasting searing blazing
Enough is enough but we still want more
Clearing wasting searing blazing through
I wonder if the elephant
Saw the poachers, smelt the scent
Just before the gunshot filled the air
Did it just keep doing
What an elephant would do?
How could it know that the time of the elephant
Was almost through?
We are like a meteor
Clearing wasting searing blazing
Enough is enough but we still want more
Clearing wasting searing blazing through
I know why our leaders lied
Denied the truth they could not hide
Pockets lined for dirty mines
Our future sold, the planet fried
It's not their toy to destroy
It's our nature to nurture and enjoy
Every creature great and small
All stand or fall on this pale blue ball
Hit pause
Change course
Or we are like a meteor
Heading the way of the dinosaur
Saw that mighty meteor
A blazing trail across prehistoric skies
Did it just keep doing
What a dinosaur would do?
How could it know that the time of the dinosaur
Was almost through?
I wonder if the orangutan
Saw the greedy hand of man
Tearing through the forest, clearing the land
Did it just keep doing
What an orangutan would do?
How could it know that the time of the orangutan
Was almost through?
We are like a meteor
Clearing wasting searing blazing
Enough is enough but we still want more
Clearing wasting searing blazing through
I wonder if the elephant
Saw the poachers, smelt the scent
Just before the gunshot filled the air
Did it just keep doing
What an elephant would do?
How could it know that the time of the elephant
Was almost through?
We are like a meteor
Clearing wasting searing blazing
Enough is enough but we still want more
Clearing wasting searing blazing through
I know why our leaders lied
Denied the truth they could not hide
Pockets lined for dirty mines
Our future sold, the planet fried
It's not their toy to destroy
It's our nature to nurture and enjoy
Every creature great and small
All stand or fall on this pale blue ball
Hit pause
Change course
Or we are like a meteor
Heading the way of the dinosaur
