lyrics

The other day I met a birdie
Sang his song so soft and sad
I asked that birdie, “What’s the matter?”
He said, “The world is getting bad
First they cut down all the forests
Then they fill the air with smog
Won’t you help me, friendly human?
All this destruction has got to stop”

‘Cause we’re all in it together
Beneath the big blue dome
Hold hands, stomping feet
Singing songs makes this your home
In the sky, in the sea
Or on the land we’re bound to roam
But we’re all in it together
Beneath the big blue dome

The other day I felt like swimming
So to the ocean I did go
But the beach looked just like a junkyard
Oil and trash in the undertow
I asked the fishies what had happened
They said we humans were the ones to blame
Always polluting the precious water
Turning our heads the other way

But I said, “Hey fishies! You must believe me!
I know some children who can change the world
They’ll treat it better, they’ll save the planet!”
So can you help me boys and girls?

‘Cause we’re all in it together
Beneath the big blue dome
Hold hands, stomping feet
Singing songs makes this your home
In the sky, in the sea
Or on the land we’re bound to roam
But we’re all in it together
Beneath the big blue dome
