Planet Earth, my home, my place A capricious anomaly in the sea of space Planet Earth are you just Floating by, a cloud of dust Do you care, have you a part In the deepest emotions of my own heart Tender with breezes caressing and whole Alive with music, haunting my soul Planet Earth, gentle and blue With all my heart, I love you What about sunrise What about rain What about all the things That you said we were to gain What about killing fields Is there a time What about all the things That you said was yours and mine Did you ever stop to notice All the blood we've shed before Did you ever stop to notice This crying Earth, these weeping shores? Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh I used to dream I used to glance beyond the stars Now I don't know where we are Although I know we've drifted far Aaaaaaaaah What about yesterday (What about us) What about the seas (What about us) The heavens are falling down (What about us) I can't even breathe (What about us) What about Africans (What about us) I ain't even through (What about us) What about nature's worth (Ooh) It's our planet's womb (What about us) What about the holy land (What about it) Torn apart by creed (What about us) What about the common man (What about us) Can't we set them free (What about us) What about children dying (What about us) Can't you hear them cry (What about us) Where did we go wrong? (Ooh) Someone tell me why (What about us) What about baby Boy (What about it) What about the days (What about us) What about all their joy (What about us) What about the man (What about us) What about the crying man (What about us) What about Abraham (What about us) What about death again (Ooh) Do we give a damn? Aaaaaaaaah (Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo) Oooooooooh (Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo) Aaaaaaaaah (Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo) Oooooooooh
