Everybody has gas guzzling cars, brand new clothes, three televisions and five stereos.
Do you suppose we need all of those material items?
What makes us buy them?
Could it be the commercials and advertising?
the corporate conspiracy to have our eyes in a state of hypnosis so out of focus propaganda machines
dream is to choke us first from the mind and then from the wallet they say it's capitalism that's not what I call it
To me, it's more like neglect, lack of respect for a beautiful planet we reject.
The water is
The oil is sacred.
The trees make oxygen.
We strip what we're snaking.
How far will we take it?
When will we change our ways?
Hopefully before the end of days.
When will we ever learn?
Will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?
We have learned.
Hopefully before the end of our days.
We have learned.
Will we ever learn to change our ways?
When will we ever learn?
Hopefully before the end of our days What makes you think the world's coming to an end?
As we know what facts, figures and trends all point to the same thing
getting hotter the ice is melting why even bother to change our ways seems like the powers that be don't care about the carbon in the air and i'm having nightmares of drowning polar bears
tragedies happen everywhere everywhere now back to my homeland where we pollute the most
mining forestry from coast to coast, burning coal, greenhouse gases, export our resources,
to support the masses.
Temperatures rise like the level of the sea, drought taking over the entire country.
People in the city go on with their days.
When will we ever learn to change our ways?
When will we ever learn?
When we gonna learn to change our ways?
When will we ever learn?
We have a love.
Hopefully before the end of our days.
We have a love.
Will we ever learn to change our ways?
When will we ever learn?
Hopefully before the end of my day I make a promise that I plan to keep To reduce my carbon footprint on the street Turn off the lights before I go to sleep And only buy food I know I'm gonna eat
Thought from the heart take a step in a new direction Meeting of the minds like Kyoto Convention
Everybody's gotta be on board.
Because our environment is something we can't ignore.
Plus, we can't afford to waste our resources.
Global warming is not from natural causes.
We gotta cut our losses and recognize the fact.
That we can't go on acting the way we act.
Because there's no turning back.
When you've gone too far.
Oil companies kill the electric car.
Change takes time.
It won't happen overnight, but together we can make things right.
When will we ever learn?
When we gonna learn to change our ways?
When will we ever learn?
Hopefully before the end of our days When will we ever learn?
Will we ever learn to change our ways?
Will we ever learn?
Hopefully before the end of our day.
