We've got to do it now, we can't go on forever
Following up the streams, the rivers and the sea
You know, we've got the power if only we would use it
But if we don't, I see the end of you and me

It's really not so hard, just think about it (if you'd just think about it)
Imagine that the world outside is your home (you know the whole world is your home)
Then you'd be the very first to shout it
Treat the country like it was your own

We've got to do it now, (you know we) can't go on forever
Following up the streams, the rivers and the sea
You know, we've got the power if only we would use it
But if we don't, I see the end of you and me

I think you ought to know, we've got a problem
It's something we can sort out if we care

We've got to do it now, (you know) we can't go on forever
Following up the streams, the rivers and the sea
You know, we've got the power if only we would use it
But if we don't, I see the end of you and me

We've got to do it now, (you know we can't go) on forever
Following up the streams, the rivers and the sea
You know, we've got the power if only we would use it
But if we don't, I see the end of you and me
