lyrics

What are we doing now?
Ruining it for future generations
What are we doing now?
Sucking empty the earth it's grounds
What are we doing now?
People starving, others drowning in money
What are we doing now?
We pollute water and air

We need sunshine
But not too much
Cause we wanna keep the ozone layer
Intact
We like to eat meat but please
Not too much
Otherwise the grounds they
Won't sustain us

Cause we consume on and on
Will there come an ending to it
We grow in numbers
Grow and grow
How will we sustain all of us
Yeah, we consume on and on
Will there come an ending to it
We grow in numbers
Grow and grow
How will we sustain all of us

Where are we going to?
Anywhere we can fly, drive and so pollute
No piece of earth untouched
If there is any money to it
What do our governments do
They struggle over convention words
What do we ourselves do
Say that we can't change anything

We need to innovate
In so far it helps sustain our world
We need to anticipate
Learn that less is more
Although we like to eat meat please
Not too much
Otherwise the grounds they
Won't sustain us

Yeah, we consume on and on
Will there come an ending to it
We grow in numbers
Grow and grow
How will we sustain all of us
Yeah, we consume on and on
Will there come an ending to it
We grow in numbers
Grow and grow
How will we sustain all of us
