Have you  heard about  the big red  ?
 They even bought a beebread rig
 To help the flowers in mean space
 They're trying to make that place green
Hope  the bees will take  away the storm
Hope  the trees will take  away the storm
Don't  know how this whole  thing started
There  was a crowd and  then we parted
Don't  know if i'll ever  go back
It's  a long way across  all of this black
Here  i am in my bucket  today . In  the middle  (bis)
 They got a mule they call Sal
 Bulldozing up canal walls
 They're gonna tap that icecap too
 When they do they're gonna make that green map blue
 The weather is finally getting warm
 And the weather is finally getting warm
 Don't know how this whole thing started
 there was a cloud and then it parted
 Don't know if i'll ever go back
 That's how i felt when i left that tarmac
 etc
