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?
What have we done to the world Look what we've done What about all the peace That you pledge your only son
Did you ever stop to notice All the children dead from war Did you ever stop to notice The crying Earth the weeping shores
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
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 children dying (What about us) Can't you hear them cry (What about us)
What about death again (ooo, ooo) Do we give a damn
