The sun is a shde of grey now
It may not be well again
Some say we're gonna pay now
So pray some for your fellow man

The riches we were given
The garden we could live in
We took it all for granted
We didn't care
So now the tree of plenty
Is standin' bare and empty
We let it wither
'cause we weren't aware

The sun is a shade of grey now
It may not be well again
Some say were gonna pay now
So pray some for your fellow man

You think you needn't worry
I say you better hurry
Your well fed body
Is in danger too
Although you're hesitating
Once you go suffocating
I bet I'm gonna see
A change in you

The sun is a shade of grey now
It may not be well again
Some say were gonna pay now
So pray some for your fellow man

It's an old and ragged ship we're sailing
On a wild an raging sea
I can hear a distant mermaid wailing
So desperately

The riches we were given
The garden we could live in
We took it all for granted
We didn't care
So now the tree of plenty
Is standing bare and empty
We let it wither
'cause we weren't aware
