Lyrics
EARTH ON FIRE 33
Music & Vocals: Barry David Butler
Lyrics: roger antony carter
How on earth did this happen
Some must take a big share of the blame
We all knew we had this one earthly paradise
Now it's gonna be in flames
Warning signs were around us
No one took much notice or took it serious
No one seems to have the will to find an answer
Some still say it's just a fuss
Chorus
Read the headlines
We're at the deadline
Man expires
Earth on fire
No one thought 'bout the future
Make a buck today their business anthem
That thinkin' has got us nowhere 'cept extinction
Seems it's gonna end in ruin
You wanna give your kids the world
But we turned away and now its way too late
We just haven't been so clever
Now we face an awful fate
Bridge
Ice caps melting at the poles
Migrating birds fly confused
Atmospheric changes comin
Greedy humans stand accused
Outro
Read the headlines
We're at the deadline
Man expires
Earth on fire
Earth on fire
Earth on fire
Earth on fire
