The woman screams at the windy day
Her children play in the acid rain
The water is green and the sky is brown
the cars and buildings, all broken down.
Now what in the world is happening here?
Will somebody please explain?
Nothing I see makes sense to me
Maybe it's only a dream.
The deer in the forest or the eagle in the sky
They see Man coming and they run to hide
The birds on the shore will no longer fly
they're covered in oil and they're bound to die.
Now how in the world does that make sense
The killing of innocent beings?
What in the world is wrong with us?
Maybe it's only a dream.
The air we breathe and the food we eat
Poor Mother Earth was poisoned in her sleep.
Now what in the world is happening here?
Will somebody please explain?
Nothing I see makes sense to me
Maybe it's only a dream.
The woman screams at the wind and rain
It's only a dream
Just a bad dream
What a bad dream…
Her children play in the acid rain
The water is green and the sky is brown
the cars and buildings, all broken down.
Now what in the world is happening here?
Will somebody please explain?
Nothing I see makes sense to me
Maybe it's only a dream.
The deer in the forest or the eagle in the sky
They see Man coming and they run to hide

What in the world is wrong with us?

Now what in the world is happening here?

Nothing I see makes sense to me
Maybe it's only a dream.
The woman screams at the wind and rain
It's only a dream
Just a bad dream
What a bad dream…
