Talkin' about Survival

What are we gonna do

about the hole in the sky?

What are we gonna do

when the water's running dry?

What are we gonna do

about the air that we breathe?

What are we gonna do

when there's no food to feed?

I'm talkin' about survival

Yeh, talkin' about survival

What are we gonna do

about our electricity

Burning up the coal?

punching in that hole

What are we gonna do

about our luxury?

Giving thanks for our lives

but putting others in POVERTY

I'm talkin' about survival

talkin' about survival

What are we gonna do

about the Nuclear Waste?

Dump it in the ground

or send it out to space?

What are we gonna do

about the problems

That we face

Don't be deaf 'n' dumb now

it's about the survival

of the Human Race

Talkin' about survival

What are we gonna do

when we're still fighting

Race against Race?

Stop your fighting now

to overcome

gotta think as one

if we ever hope
