One Green World
Well, it doesn't take a genius
To figure out the signs
There are many here among us
Who have no respect for life
Who live in such addiction
To these bold exotic times
When it doesn't matter where you get to
More the height you climb
But just take a moment
A moment in time
And think of the future
For this is your life
A people divided is a paradise lost
One green world, yeah
Lonely politicians, harbingers of doom
Captains of industry rise above the gloom
Walk the world beneath you
And tell me what you see
Crazy schemes and broken dreams
To set this planet free
But if we restore it
Oh, you leave it alone
For every tree fallen, a new one is grown
A solid foundation that we can call home
One green world
This could be one green world
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
It's a suffering world
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
But what we gonna do, yeah?
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
Gotta put it back where it belongs, yeah
Put it back, right back, right back where it belongs
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
But we can rebuild it if you let it be
Bring back the forest, yeah
And clean up the sea
It'll be so nice just to live here
In air that you can breathe
In one green world
So just take a moment, yeah
Before all is lost
The natural order is the one that we forgot
One brave step forward, huh, and then we will see
Such a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful green world
Oh, yeah
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
But we can change, we can change it all
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
Bring back the natural world, oh poor world, yeah
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
(Yeah) the world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
I mean, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
Talking to you
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime
We can rebuild it, yeah
You know the world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a, a human crime
To figure out the signs
There are many here among us
Who have no respect for life
Who live in such addiction
To these bold exotic times
When it doesn't matter where you get to
More the height you climb
But just take a moment
A moment in time

It's a suffering world
The world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a human crime

You know the world is sick, the world is blind
The world is suffering from a, a human crime
