Earth Song Michael Jackson 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 were 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? Ah, ooh Ah, ooh What have we done to the world? Look what we've done What about all the peace That you pledge your only son? What about flowering fields? Is there a time? What about all the dreams That you said was yours and mine? Did you ever stop to notice All the children dead from war? Did you ever stop to notice This crying earth, these weeping shores? Ah, ooh Ah, ooh 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 Ah, ooh Ah, ooh Ah, ooh Ah, ooh Hey, 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 apathy (What about us) Burnt despite our pleas (What about us) What about the holy land (What about it) Torn apart by creed (What about us) Where did we go wrong (ooo, ooo) Someone tell me why (What about us) What about babies (What about it) What about the days (What about us) What about all their joy Do we give a damn |

Complete lyrics...(I realized after posted Earth song some profound words missing when I copied the lyrics) 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 The crying Earth the weeping shores? Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh What have we done to the world Look what we've done What about all the peace That you pledge your only son... What about flowering fields Is there a time What about all the dreams That you said was yours and mine... Did you ever stop to notice All the children dead from war Did you ever stop to notice The crying Earth the weeping shores Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh 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 Oooooooooh Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh Hey, 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 apathy (What about us) I need you (What about us) What about nature's worth (Ooo, ooo) It's our planet's womb (What about us) What about animals (What about it) We've turned kingdoms to dust (What about us) What about elephants (What about us) Have we lost their trust (What about us) What about crying whales (What about us) We're ravaging the seas (What about us) What about forest trails (Ooo, ooo) Burnt despite our pleas (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 him 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 (Ooo, ooo) Someone tell me why (What about us) What about babies (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 (Ooo, ooo) Do we give a damn Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh |

Thank you Eve...this makes me weep for Mother Earth. Perhaps sending this to every governmental agency to see if there is a scintilla of compassion for the world and all who reside her, would be something we can do on this precious day. Shame on all of us if we don't let our voices heard. (hugs) snodrop |

yeah...earth day don't make me happy..cause she not getting any better.....I give thanks today for Mother Earth and all she given...she not get in return what she deserves. Every day really for inhabitants is earth day. What make me sad is she not even noticed in zodiac...nor is there a day of week named after her like there is for the 5 visible planets, the sun and moon. She give so much...so giving. I not mean to bring anyone down I just woke with a heavy heart today...It will pass as it always does. Peace to you for noticing (((snowdrop))) and for hugs.. In the spirit of compassion for Mother Earth, Truly, ~Eve |
