A Drop In The Ocean SaveThePlanet by Mr Gee Poet Lyrics
[Chorus]
No matter how I try,
It's my selfish heart,
Can you forgive my lies?
Has our future gone?
Gone
Gone
[Verse 1]
Within one drop of water,
From one drop of rain,
We can see one drop of disorder,
That charts a planet’s pain
If you look within a single grain of sand,
You can see the quickening desert that expands,
As it brings its own future plans,
That extinguishes all the land
The greenhouse emissions,
Form grim tales for predictions,
The hills have their own eyes,
As they realise the futility of our position
There's a futility in our expense,
A futility in our pollution,
There's an instability in our conclusion,
That offers no improvement on solution
To have a single molecule of oxygen,
That’s uncorrupted by the toxicants?
Is that the building block of our children's stock...
...to be able to breathe air freely and not be coughing up?
To chart a solitary snowflake,
Cast its carbon foot on swan lake,
Yet the warning of Global Warming,
Is only courted when the storms break
[Chorus]
No matter how I try,
It's my selfish heart,
Can you forgive my lies?
Has our future gone?
Gone
Gone
[Verse 2]
We only take heed when the typhoons hit,
And the hurricane's blitz,
And the sea-levels rise,
And fresh-water runs dry,
Amazon forests die,
And land-fill sites pile sky high,
Yet somewhere amidst all the lies,
You can hear Mother Nature cry
Don't forget that this planet has its own biological clock,
Nothing lasts forever, so don't demolish the lot,
If life is indeed to be treasured,
Then treasure what you've got...
For, remember that all life started:
From just one precious drop.
[Chorus]
No matter how I try,
It's my selfish heart,
Can you forgive my lies?
Has our future gone?
Gone
Gone
No matter how I try,
It's my selfish heart,
Can you forgive my lies?
Has our future gone?
Gone
Gone
