Take a Good Look Around
Wake up
And see the signs
Mother nature
On my mind
Reports are in
Conclusions clear
Protect restore
Too late I fear
Take a good look around
Just a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will see what's wrong
Plastic lawn
Concrete base
Suffocating
Sterile space
Ancient trees
For years they stand
Now they're gone
Building planned
Take a good look around
Just a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will be dismayed
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
And it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Pollinators
Set the seed
Fragile systems
Hurt by greed
More to growth
Than GDP
Natural wealth
It's not for free
Take a good look around
Get a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will be amazed
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
Oh it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Look toward the future
What gets left behind
Stop and think
Oh it's hard to think
Time goes by
We're on the brink
I see all the beauty in this world
How it keeps us living
I see all the damage that we do
How we let things die
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
Oh it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Need to find a way, need to find a way
Look around today, look around today
Need to find a way, need to find a way
Look around today
And see the signs
Mother nature
On my mind
Reports are in
Conclusions clear
Protect restore
Too late I fear
Take a good look around
Just a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will see what's wrong
Plastic lawn
Concrete base
Suffocating
Sterile space
Ancient trees
For years they stand
Now they're gone
Building planned
Take a good look around
Just a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will be dismayed
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
And it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Pollinators
Set the seed
Fragile systems
Hurt by greed
More to growth
Than GDP
Natural wealth
It's not for free
Take a good look around
Get a little bit closer
Take a good look and
You will be amazed
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
Oh it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Look toward the future
What gets left behind
Stop and think
Oh it's hard to think
Time goes by
We're on the brink
I see all the beauty in this world
How it keeps us living
I see all the damage that we do
How we let things die
I see all the beauty in this world
And it keeps me smiling
I've seen all the damage that's been done
Oh it makes me cry
Look around today
Need to find a way
Need to find a way, need to find a way
Look around today, look around today
Need to find a way, need to find a way
Look around today
