Hungry Planet Songtext
I'm a hungry planet

I had a youthful face

They were in a hurry

To go to outer space

They needed bombs and tungsten
Ore and iron too

So they climbed and they dug and they blew

Divided me right in two

I'm a hungry planet

Orbiting in the sky

The things they did to hurt me

Pass on by and by

Now here I am all alone

They never ever learn

Well I had to shake and quake
And make their houses burn

I'm a hungry planet

I had the bluest seas

Oh the people kept chopping down

All my finest trees

Poisoning my oxygen

Digging into my skin

Taking more out of my good earth

Than they'll ever put back in

I'm a hungry planet
