Some folks are living in a dust bowl
I've seen them on TV, ah
Some folks are living in a dust bowl
Don't love like you and me, ah
Some folks live in little boxes
Underneath the railway station
Some folks live in little boxes
What a way to run a nation
When after all is said and done
We've only got one earth, one sun
There's nowhere in our universe
Where we can go if things get worse
We'd better make a start today
The problems here won't go away
We'd better take just one step back
'cause our beautiful bubble is about to crack
Some folks are breaking down the ozone
Breaking down the ozone layer
Some folks are messin' with the ozone
Hope they're around when it's time to pay, ah
Some folks are cuttin' down the forest
Cuttin' down the forest station
Some folks are cuttin' down the forest
Do we need the devastation?
'cause after all is said and done
We've only got one earth, one sun
There's nowhere in our universe
Where we can go if things get worse
We'd better make a start today
The problems here won't go away
We'd better take just one step back
'cause our beautiful bubble is about to crack
Some folks are living in a dust bowl
Some folks live in little boxes
Some folks are breaking down the ozone
Some folks are cutting down the forest
