Lyrics

The jungle is burning
The clearing’s been made
The tree of life is being stripped away today

Caretaker, caretaker
What is your plan?
Have you been thinking of the future of the land?

As the planet cries out for reason
And the earth is chanting in pain
We will lose our place in Eden

Who’s gonna tell the children
That there’s no air left to breathe
Who’s gonna tell the children
There’s no food left to eat
Who’s gonna tell the children
There’s no trees left to see
Who’s gonna tell the children?

Ndoki, Ndoki
I want you to last
Don’t want to see you as a picture of the past
Ndoki animals never seen man
They have no fear of eating poison from his hand

We destroy the beauty around us
What we call progressive adjustment
We will lose our place in Eden.

Who’s gonna tell the children?
