Verse
There’s planet, tiny and blue
Cruising our galaxy
With air to breathe, water and food,
For life to prosper peacefully
On top of the food chain
Mankind in its glory
The pride of creation, a smart brain
With untamed imagination
Bridge
Everything’s hunky-dory
But we overlook carelessly
That human spawn is sawing off
The bough it is sitting on
Chorus
We are selfish and numb
Push our wealth to the max
Witless, stupid and dumb
But the thin ice shows cracks
Our hands are covered with blood
We shoot other’s wad
Can we abide this facade?
Interludium
We are black, white, a motley crew
Different cultures and views
But all of us truly despise
Being governed by devils in disguise
Cold-blooded we keep profiting
It’s impossible to withstand
Until we all loose everything
As the system ‘s getting out of hand
But we imperturbably
Bark up the wrong tree
Verse
The only thing of value
Is increasing our revenue
Growing figures and numbers
The cash flow never slumbers
Bridge
To alter our course is not that hard
We hold each and every card
Show respect for nature
Our planet and all creatures
