Lyrics
Sue Peters (c) 2020

How do we get out of this mess
When the whole damn world’s on fire?
Society crumbing from unrest, situation dire

We need to wake up before it’s too late
And it burns beyond repair
We need a shake-up before it’s too late
Or does anybody care?

How do we get out of this mess
When we’re fighting a losing battle?
Environment is under duress, situation fragile

We need to clean up before it’s too late
And we cannot breathe the air
We need a shake-up before it’s too late
Or does anybody care?

How do we get out of this mess
Where some people’s lives don’t matter?
With some treated worse than all the rest, situation sadder

We need to step up before it’s too late
And demand a world that’s fair
We need a shake-up before it’s too late
Or does anybody care?

Does anybody care? Is anybody there?
Does anybody know what to do?

How do we get out of this mess
When the whole damn world’s on fire?
Society crumbing from unrest, situation dire

We need to wake up before it’s too late
And it burns beyond repair
We need a shake-up before it’s too late
Or does anybody care?

We need to clean up before it’s too late
And we cannot breathe the air
We need to step up before it’s too late
And demand a world that’s fair
We need a shake-up before it’s too late
Or does anybody care?

How do we get out of this mess?
