[They Might Be Giants - Then the Kids Took Over lyrics]
The earth is our one home
The earth is so fragile it seems it's warmer
And warmer
And things have gone from strange to extreme
Neglected deflected
Can't undo what is already done aware now
With know-how
With power from the wind and the sun
Listen up! I was stomping around with
My giant carbon footprint
But now I got so tiny you really gotta squint
I learned there was a lot I
Can do: recycling, self-reliance
Energy conservation, no matter how small
I even planted a tree
Now it's twelve feet tall
And then the kids took over
That's when the future began
And when the kids took over
They had an un-secret plan
And when the kids took over
They didn't walk, no, they ran
And then the kids took over
It was the future
The earth is so fragile it seems it's warmer
And warmer
And things have gone from strange to extreme
Neglected deflected
Can't undo what is already done aware now
With know-how
With power from the wind and the sun
Listen up! I was stomping around with
My giant carbon footprint
But now I got so tiny you really gotta squint
I learned there was a lot I
Can do: recycling, self-reliance
Energy conservation, no matter how small
I even planted a tree
Now it's twelve feet tall
And then the kids took over
That's when the future began
And when the kids took over
They had an un-secret plan
And when the kids took over
They didn't walk, no, they ran
And then the kids took over
It was the future
