I See Hawks In L.A. - Environmental Children of the Future Lyrics
Are making green plans for tomorrowThe environmental children of the futureDon’t need to steal or borrowFrom their grandchildren’s rainFrom their grandchildren’s sunFrom their grandchildren’s mountainThe way that we have doneThe environmental children of the futureYeah, yeah, yeah, yeahThe environmental children of the futureYeah, yeah, yeah, yeahThe environmental childrenThere’s a willowy lass who was first in her classAt the architecture school in the cityWith recycled materials she built towers filled with dreamsBased on the pattern of a spinning falling leafAfter graduation she moved away to MaineNow she’s building hay bale shelters in the cold October rainCHORUSWell the hundred year floods came in SeptemberThen the hundred year floods came in NovemberAnd the hurricanes and flames came down on the plainsAnd the children of the future said “remember!”CHORUSThe environmental children of the futureTook their elders by the handThey said the earth is a self-regulating organismLet us help you understandAnd the willowy lass lay down on the grassSinging prayers for the Great Barrier ReefAnd the sky overhead was her feathery bedNow floating freely like a spinning falling leafCHORUS
