Lyrics Hans Theessink

Hans Theessink

The Planet

Hard times behind us

Hard times ahead

It's a miracle we're still living

It's a wonder we ain't dead

I read it in the paper

Heard it on the news

This old world's in trouble

People, we're all chased by the blues

The planet still keeps turning

Draws a circle 'round the sun

Seasons come and seasons go

What's been done

Can't be made undone

Mother earth is bleeding

She got scars upon her face

She gave us what we needed

We left her in disgrace

Tore away her skin

Dug down into her soul

Mister Greed keeps digging

He's digging far too low

The planet still keeps turning

Draws a circle 'round the sun

Seasons come and seasons go

What's been done

Can't be made undone

Fires of hate are burning

They're burning everywhere

Man mistreats his fellow-men

We turn our head, don't seem to care

But one day before long

We got to change our ways

Start living like we're meant to

Rainbow race

The planet still keeps turning

Draws a cïrcle 'round the sun

Seasons come and seasons go

What's been done

Can't be made undone
