lyrics

Here on Planet Earth

A traveller gave me lucky heather
A poacher ran into a field
Dogs gave chase to a rabbit that day
Here on Planet Earth

Children playing in their School yards
Now taking action on the street
Putting to shame the things that we have done
Here on Planet Earth

And if you’re trying to change the world a day at a time
And you’re wondering why the Earth is so in decline
Rise up, Rise up, Rise up

It’s hard to get the message over
Some people are not listening now
There’s little time for us to change
Here on Planet Earth

The consequences are quite simple
Extinction of the human race
But there’s a need to spell things out
Here on Planet Earth

Two hundred species lost every day
The world is warming up everyday
Ice caps melting everyday
People trying to survive this planets total Ecocide

And if you’re trying to change the world a day at a time
And you’re wondering why the Earth is so in decline
Rise up, Rise up, Rise up
Rise up, Rise up, Rise up

It’s not a protest you can hide from
Daily disruption everywhere
But let’s be strong right here right now
Here on Planet Earth

And if you’re trying to change the world a day at a time
And you’re wondering what to do to stop this decline
Rise up, Rise up, Rise up
Rise up, Rise up, Rise up
