An Alarm Call for a Sleeping Population Songtext
It′s time to wake up and smell the shit
The world's a mess - we′ve got to try to change it
We're sinking fast - there's no time to lose
Can we turn it around? It′s for us all to choose
Natural resources are being depleted
Yet we act as if the Earth must be defeated and brought
Under control for humankind′s use
With this attitude we place all our heads in a noose You say, "We're the guardians of the Earth"
Well, who appointed us such?
Do you think the Earth can′t exist without humanity's touch?
We abuse it routinely, and then wonder who′s to blame
When the planet starts groaning under the strain
Will we be in time to see that we must start living in harmony
Or will we only realise as the human race finally dies?
The world's a mess - we′ve got to try to change it
We're sinking fast - there's no time to lose
Can we turn it around? It′s for us all to choose
Natural resources are being depleted
Yet we act as if the Earth must be defeated and brought
Under control for humankind′s use
With this attitude we place all our heads in a noose You say, "We're the guardians of the Earth"
Well, who appointed us such?
Do you think the Earth can′t exist without humanity's touch?
We abuse it routinely, and then wonder who′s to blame
When the planet starts groaning under the strain
Will we be in time to see that we must start living in harmony
Or will we only realise as the human race finally dies?
