Look up to the sky See the stars there, shining bright Are they the aim The aim we should all reach for That launch us into space But who thinks of the earth Where our ancestors lie
We are so clever and arrogant It's in our hands to change everything
Who thinks of the children Killed by hunger and disease What about the people Slayed in stupid, senseless wars We're always reaching Just for money and success But what will we buy When there's nothing more to sell
We are so clever and arrogant It's in our hands to change everything Who's watching the world Who's watching the world
Why can't we take All our intelligence To create something new That's not determined to destroy ourselves Who's to say that it can't be done
We are so clever and arrogant It's in our hands to change everything Who's watching the world Who's watching the world
