Hawkwind - Ascent lyrics

There are many things that
We don't understand
The meaning of life, the ascent of man
But where in this world of
Creatures great and small
Can we help for the good of the whole
In this world full of avarice, greed
And hate we must turn the tide and educate
Look to the living, either left or right
Ready to give up without a fight
Systems overload, population explode
Where we go from here god only knows

In this world full of avarice, greed
And hate we must turn the tide and educate
We must turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate
Learn to live in harmony and love
Light up the night sky, the heavens above
Protect our wipeout from this world so great
Stop the hunting of fish
Keep the oceans pristine
In this world full of avarice, greed
And hate we must turn the tide and educate
We must turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate
