I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms.
|
I see rockets, missiles in the sky.
|
Day by day, more and more,
|
Where will this lead to
|
and what is this good for?
|
Poor World, Poor World.
|
|
Concrete's rising up,
|
where yearerday was park
|
you heard the Robin's Song
|
Heavy tractor runs
|
where air was clean and cool
|
make money, bringing fuel.
|
|
Where will this lead to
|
and what is this good for?
|
A Poor World, Poor World.
|
|
Fishes doomed to die
|
as people live close by
|
and oaktree falls with moon
|
Parking lots will come
|
with flowerfields were bright
|
as junkyard covers sight!
|
|
Where will this lead to
|
and what is this good for?
|
Poor world, is hurting bad,
|
Poor world, is doomed to die.
|
|
We kill the world
|
kill the world
|
We surely do
|
In peace we do!
|
We kill the world
|
kill the world
|
'cause we don't know
|
what we are doing!
|
|
We kill it
|
One by one
|
Don't realize!
|
|
And nuclear piles stand like monuments
|
of destruction throughout over the country
|
|
Promenades must go
|
so cars can drive in row
|
New Fact'ry towers tall
|
Farmhouse had to fall
|
No flowers in the air
|
pollution everywhere.
|
|
Where will this lead to
|
and what is this good for?
|
A Poor world, Poor World.
|
|
Oceans in despair
|
There's rubbish everywhere
|
The seaweed chokes in mud
|
Nature's had her lot
|
With nuclear waste and rot
|
And mushrooms bloom as clouds.
|
|
Where will this lead to
|
and what is this good for?
|
Poor world, is hurting bad,
|
poor world, is doomed to die.
|
|
We kill the world...
|
|
Don't kill the world
|
don't let her down.
|
Do not destroy basic ground.
|
Don't kill the world
|
our means of life.
|
Lend ear to nature's cry.
|
|
Don't kill the world
|
She's all we have,
|
And surely is worth to save.
|
Don't let her die,
|
fight for her trees,
|
Pollution robs air to breathe.
|
|
Don't kill the world
|
help her survive
|
And she'll reward you with life
|
And don't just talk,
|
Go on and do the one, who wins is you.
|
|
Cherish the world,
|
A present from God
|
On behalf of all creatures,
|
made by the Lord
|
Care for the earth,
|
Foundation of life
|
Slow progress down help her survive
|
