Mother Earth Lyrics

Extra extra, the world is going insane
Floods, tsunamis, earthquakes
Mother nature is totally out of balance

Do you know Tom Jobim, the great composer from Brazil?
The guy who wrote "The Girl from Ipanema"
He had a beautiful house up in the mountains
And over there he wrote many beautiful standards
Including "Waters of March"
What he could not imagine is that the waters of january
Would cause his home to vanish
Destroying a village and taking the lives of over eight hundred people
Mother earth, mother earth

She gave you home (mother earth)
She gave you life (mother earth)
She gave you food (mother earth)
And water to survive

Where where where we are going (I don't know)
How much can she take it (we should know)
We just take take (don't give back)
We just take take (don't give back) Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Where where where we are going (I don't know)
How much can she take it (we should know)
We just take take (don't give back)
We just take take (don't give back)

Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Where is the paradise I've made for you?
For you!

Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Mother nature is gonna slap you on your face
