Lyrics
Small Star In Th Universe
V1
It's coming on fast and if we don't cool it
We will not last to the end of this era
Cuz not many ask "What's going on the other side?"
What I mean is we're building our missiles
And if we don't stop before the referee's whistle
Just one touchdown and there's no other side
Chorus
Such a small star in the universe
With giant minds spinning in reverse Where's the love?
V2
Mother Earth has a belly ache
And her heart is sore from all the war And she needs a bath but the water's poor
For what it's worth we're children of the Earth
And of the beauty she gave she only asks in return
For love and care for her and everyone
Chorus
Such a small star in the universe
With giant minds spinning in reverse Where's the love?
Bridge
Where does one begin
To try to change a world?
I guess I'll have to start with myself
Chorus and out
Such a small star in the universe
With giant minds spinning in reverse
Such a small star in the universe
With giant minds spinning in reverse
ohhhhhh
