i was born on planet earth

the rotating ball whre man comes first

it's been around for a long time

but now its time to watch it die

i saw a man on my big blue screen

he ruled the world economy

he said the rich would never concede

but some day soon he'll be put to sleep

i've seen the life of the forest green

and adaptations of the deep blue sea

and who knows who is the fittest

they will all soon be put to rest

on a plunging flight and we're sitting

in the pilots seat in the midst of life

people on a dark horizon praying

somebody will save their lives

i was born on the planet earth

at a drastic time full of plastic mirth

and every day i've seen increasing signs

and you would too if you'd opened your eyes

you had a chance you did not try

so now it's time to watch it die
