Fight To Save Our World Lyrics - Singles - Naked Earth

Was looking at a sky of blue 

But now it's turned to grey 

A whole lot darker now than yesterday 

Could it have been a dream 

Or a distant memory 

Cos things seem so much worse than they used to be 

Wandering on the beach 

Thought I would take a swim 

But signs are telling me I can't go in 

Says "Too much bacteria" 

When will it be cleared up 

The seas are big but they're not big enough 

For this abuse, seems it's just no use 

The time has come to change our way 

Though we should have yesterday 

Fight to save our world 

Saw a new car today 

Just like all the rest 

Using fossil fuel when solar's best 

People talk of change 

Running cars on batteries 

But it's prevented by oil companies 

Took a walk down to the creek 

But it's there no more 

Nothing but concrete from shore to shore 

No more fish that swim 

No more birds that sing 

Mankind keeps destroying everything 

For his own gain, it's just insane 

The time has come to change our way 

Though we should have yesterday 

Fight to save our world 

Fight to change the way we treat the air 

Fight bureaucracies that just don't care 

Fight to change the future of our children 

Fight to save the species that day by day we keep on killin' 

Saw a group of kids 

Thought it looked OK 

But then I noticed that they weren't at play 

Was at the local school 

Ten kids in a fight 

Nine wrong surrounding one that's right
