Song Description
PEOPLE OF THE EARTH
lyrics by Scott Tournet
I met a man who flew on a spaceship
he took a trip right out of this world
Floating all around and checking out the sound
thinking bout the sum of it all.
First he took a left towards jupiter
Next he headed right for mars
he turned around and looked back down
and opened up his spaceman arms
Are we from?
North America
South Africa
Saudi Arabia
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
Deep in space he sat and wondered
about left and right and man made walls
keeping us apart from each other
dividing what unites us all
A girl in China laughs at the TV
a child in Russia cries for his mom
A man from Poland prays for the future
Everyone just trying to live on.
Are we from?
North America
South Africa
Saudi Arabia
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
When he came back down to earth the next month
Everything was just the same
Politicians talking bout the borderlines
nothing in their hearts had changed
doing what they're told by the rich folks
who make they're money using the poor
why can't we ever get it together.
take what you need and not any more
Are we from?
North America
South Africa
Saudi Arabia
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
Are we from?
West India
Columbia
Polynesia
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
Are we from?
Mongolia
Nigeria
Tasmania
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
Are we from?
Romania
Ethiopia
Macedonia
Or People Of The Earth That All Belong
