Then the Kids Took Over

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The earth is our one home The earth is so fragile it seems It's warmer and warmer And things have gone from strange to extreme [Chorus] And then the kids took over That's when the future began And when the kids took over They had an un-secret plan And when the kids took over They didn't walk, no, they ran And then the kids took over It was the future [Verse 2] Neglected, deflected Can't undo what is already done Aware now with know-how With power from the wind and the sun [Chorus] And then the kids took over That's when the future began And when the kids took over They had an un-secret plan And when the kids took over They didn't walk, no, they ran And then the kids took over It was the future [Bridge: Spoken] Listen up! I was stomping around with my giant carbon footprint But now I got so tiny you really gotta squint I learned there was a lot I can do: recycling, self-reliance, energy conservation, no matter how small I even planted a tree Now it's twelve feet tall [Chorus] And then the kids took over That's when the future began And when the kids took over They had an un-secret plan And when the kids took over They didn't walk, no, they ran And then the kids took over It was the future
