| Mother, Father please explain to me Why a world so full of mystery A place so bitter and still so sweet So beautiful and yet so full of sad, sad... Mother, Father please explain to me Why forests march to desert's beat While snowcapped mountains melt away What do we tell our babies, when do we say, oh Mother, Father please explain to me How a man who rocks his child to sleep Pulls the trigger on his brother's heart He digs a hole right to the middle of this storm of hatred Mother, Father please explain to me How it could be so this world has come to be A precious balance in between Such cruelty and such kindness please Mother, Father please explain to me How this world has come to be Unequaled in her blessings, oh, I see Unbridled hatred so extreme, please tell me Mother, Father please explain to me How this world has come to be so Twisted between time and dreams Oh, mother, father please explain to me Oh, what's all this talk about? All this talk about it Spinning down, down, down, down, down All this talk about Endless words without Nothing's done Mother, Father do you know Why one man's belly overflows Another sleeps in hunger's bed Oh, we trade our world for a piece of bread Oh Mother, Father please explain to me How this rare world's come to be A place so full of color yet overflowing Always in black and white Drowning in the waters of our... Mother, Father please explain to me How this world has come to be While still blessed in all the things we see Such a sad, sad home for you and me Come out, and hold, Come on out you Come on out you Come and save yourself Come on out you Come on we're taking the water We're taken the water We're taken the water But you know We got the freedom We got the freedom There's no God above And no hell below Oh, it's here with us It's up to us To keep afloat How this sweet world has come to be Oh to keep afloat Mother, father please explain to me How this rare world has come to be Oh, let the blue planet Let the blue planet Mother, father please explain to me Mother, father please explain | |
