You know it can't go on
Been going on so long
No, it can't go on

Whoa, no-no, oh

'Cause greedy men have slaughtered all the life there ever was
Better play it nature's way

Don't try tell me you know more than her
About right or wrong
'Cause you've upset the balance, man
Done the only thing you can

So, mountain high and river deep
Wake this world up from its sleep
