One blue sky above us one ocean lapping all our shore one earth so
green and round who could ask for more. And because I love you
I will give it one more try
To show my rainbow race it's too soon to die.
Some folks want to be like an ostrich bury their heads in the sands.
Some hope to take the plastic dreams can unclench all those greedy hands.
Some hope to take the easy way poisons bombs we think we need them.
Don't you know you can't kill all the unbeliver's there's no shortcut
to freedom
(Chorus)
Go tell, go tell all the little children tell all their mothers
and father's too, Now it's our last chance to learn to share
What's forgetten to me and you.
(Chorus)(2x)
