We live in the land of plenty
But many things arent plenty anymore
Like the water from our sink
They says not safe to drink
You gotta go and buy it at the store
Now were told theres a hole in the ozone
Look whats washing on the beach
And lord, I believe, from the heavens to the seas
Were bringing mother nature to her knees
Chorus:
So lets leave some blue up above us
Lets leave some green on the ground
Its only ours to borrow, lets save some for tomorrow
Leave it and pass it on down
Well theres a change taking place way on the mountains
Acid rain is falling on the leaves
And down in brazil, the fires are burning still
How we gonna breathe without them trees
Repeat chorus
Theres a place where I live called the canyon
Where daddy taught me to swim
And that water, its so pure
And Im gonna make sure
Daddys grandkids can swim there like him
Now we all oughta feel just a little bit guilty
When we look into the eyes of our kids
cause brothers its a fact, if we take and dont put back
Theyll have to pay for all we did
Repeat chorus (4 times)
