Save The World

Weve got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it So far weve seen
This planets rape, how weve abused it Weve got to save the world
The russians have the biggest share
With their long fingers everywhere
And now theyve bombs in outer space
With laser beams and atomic waste
Rain forest chopped for paper towels
One acre gone in every hour*
Our birds and wildlife all destroyed
To keep some millionaires employed
Weve got to save the whale
Greenpeace theyve tried to diffuse it But dog food salesmen
Persist on kindly to harpoon it Weve got to save the world
The armament consortium
Theyre selling us plutonium
Now you can make your own h-bomb
Right in the kitchen with your mom
The nuclear power that costs you more
Than anything youve known before
The half-wits answer to a need
For cancer, death, destruction, greed
Weve got to save the world
Someones children they may need it So far weve seen
The big business of extinction bleed it Weve got to save the world
Were at the mercy of so few
With evil hearts determined to Reduce this planet into hell
Then find a buyer and make quick sale
To end upon a happy note
Like trying to make concrete float
Is very simple knowing that
God in your heart lives
Weve got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it Its time you knew
How close weve come
Were gonna lose it — we gotta save, we gotta save
We gotta save the world
