Telephone wires upon my head
Trees and bushes soon to be dead
Manatee struck against my bow
Once a mermaid now a cow
Now a cow
Bring back the beautiful
See the truth behind the face
Fire the rat who lost the race
Find the man who sells the earth
Try to find out what it's worth
What it's worth—The earth—What is it worth
Bring back the beautiful
So many things we want to change
So many things to rearrange
We live, we grow, we shrink, we die
But what has struck us in the eye
Remember the things that gave us hope
As scared we were we somehow coped
We somehow coped
