歌词
Mother father please explain to me
Why a world so full of mystery
A place so bitter and still so sweet
So beautiful and yet so full of sad, sad
Mother father please explain to me
Why forests march to deserts be
While snow capped mountains melt away
What do we tell our babies? What do we say, oh?
Mother father please explain to me
How, a man who rocks his child to sleep
Yet pulls the trigger on his brother's heart
He digs a hole right in the middle of a storm of hatred
Mother father please explain to me
How it could be so this world has come to be
A precious balance in between
Such cruelty and such kindness please, please
Mother father please explain to me
How this world has come to be
Unequalled in her blessings, oh I see
Unbridled hatred so extreme, please tell me
Mother father please explain to me
How the world has come to be so
Twisted between time and dreams
Oh, mother father, please explain to me
What's all this talk about
All this talk about it
Spinning down, down, down, down, down
All this talk about
Endless words without
Nothing's done
Mother father do you know
Why one man's belly overflows
Another sleeps in hungers bed?
We'd trade our world for a piece of bread
Mother father please explain to me
How this rare worlds come to be
A place so full of color yet overflowing always
In black and white, drowning in the waters of our -
Mother father please explain to me
How this world has come to be
While still blessed in all the things, we see
Such a sad, sad home for you and me
Come on
Come on out you
Come on out you
Come on save yourself
Come on out you
Come on
We're taking on water
We're taking on water
We're taking on water
But you know we've got the freedom
We've got the freedom
There's no god above
No hell below
It's here with us
It's up to us
To keep afloat, oh
How this sweet world has come to be
All to keep afloat, oh
Mother father please explain to me
How this rare world has come to be
Oh, let the blue planet, let the blue planet
Mother father please explain to me
Mother father please explain
