Lyrics
I think it's something that we look at the TV And listen to the radio But come on baby let's go look at the stars And see what we don't know Seems to me that if we don't change We won't have a place to go Except for rocket people living in outer space When the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day When the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day Oh boy when we look inside ourselves It's like trying to see in the dark Only know what we're told to know Ain't nothing to set us apart We look for power in the goods we can buy Don't know why we've got a suffering heart If we don't open it it's going to stay that way Till the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day Till the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day There's nothing bad about something good Why hate the rain In a desert and dying of thirst Soak it up let it ease the pain Put out the fire of hate and greed Peace will thrive again Don't take a rocket scientist to fear the day When the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day When the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day When the sea starts boiling and the sun burns hot And the sky starts choking on the seventh day Words and Music (c) 1981, 2003 by Jack Morris
