The kids need education, whoa-oh-oh
And the streets are never clean
I've seen a certain disposition
Prevailing in the wind (sweet change)
If anybody's listening, oh
Emergency on planet Earth
Is that life that I am witnessing
Or just another wasted birth?
Now we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Oh, now we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Yes, we have
Think we're standing for injustice
White gets two and black gets five years
Well, it took me quite a while to suss this
Now I know my head is cleared
And a little boy in hungry land
Is just a picture in the news
I won't see him in the TV advertising
'Cause it might put you off your food, oh, hey
Now we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Oh, now we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth, come on
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody out there? Yeah
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Ah, yes, we have
Say what we got
Emergency on planet Earth is what we got
Oh, I tell 'em what we got now
Emergency on planet Earth is what we got
Is someone out there?
Emergency on planet Earth is what we got
What we got now
Oh, somebody help me
C'mon, somebody help me now
'Cause we got emergency
C'mon, somebody help us now, yeah
Oh, we need you, oh
Somebody help us now
