New Generation
Born into the human race on a little green ball in outer space
another
generation takes it's place to change our history.
What
direction will they go and will they learn from what we know?
How much
will they think they owe to the new society?
Chorus
New generation, new generation old foundation
New
generation will be, living in a world of fantasy
looking
for a new reality.
As we walk the path of life it's easy to find ourselves in strife
looking
for a husband or a wife to raise a family.
In the
wink of an eye you find you're old
and the
kids won't do a thing they're told.
All of a
sudden you lose your hold and the children ... all run free.
New generation, new generation old foundation
new
generation, will be, living in a world of fantasy
looking
for a new reality.
Born into the human race on a little green ball in outer space
another
generation takes it's place to change our history.
What
direction will they go and will they learn from what we know?
How much
will they think they owe to the new society?
New generation, new generation old foundation
New
generation will be, living in a world of fantasy
looking
for a new reality.

Art Official Art
You live inside your body, in a house, upon a street.
In a
town or in the country, on the world beneath your feet.
The
universe around the earth is an infinite sea of stars
in
case you had not noticed, that's exactly where you are.
We come from a planet, called Art Star One.
From a
new dimension of time and space of shape and form.
Everybody
has, a special purpose a mission that began
on the
day that, you were born.
When you
fulfil, your quest I this life.
You will
return to the realm of light it's just a ... dream away.
Back to
the world, of imagination, because your life is a never ending holiday.
You woke
up from a dream, as a new born child.
To
arrive at the point you start because the spirit never dies.
Chorus
I sing about life, in the name of creation, I sing the facts of art to modern man
and we
have got to keep on singing, till he understands.
The law
of nature is the law of the land.
This far
out world, is Paradise.
It's an
open air gallery, of living art.
Art that
is growing, towards the sun
and the
endless beat of eternity is in your heart.
You are
at one with creation and the powers that be
in the
silent calm of inner space you can fly through the galaxy.
Imagination, is a river of thought.
That's
where the solutions to all your, problems flow.
It's a
river of thought, so let that river run free.
Through
the valleys and the mountains that's the way it's meant to be.
It's a
river of love, so let that river run free.
Through
the crystal streams and the waterfalls, the flowers and the trees.
I sing about life, In the name of creation, I sing the facts of art to modern man
and we
have got to keep on singing, till he understands
the key
to creation is in your hand, I sing about life, in the name of Creation.
I sing
the facts of art to modern man.
I sing
about life, In the name of creation.
The law
of Nature … is the law ... of the .. . Land.

The Cause
Everybody is fighting to survive, everybody is fighting to survive
and you can thank your lucky stars you are alive

The Wind Through The Banners
There's an old ragged banner, hanging high up in the trees.
‘Save the World For The Children’, blowing in the breeze.
Land Rights flags and rainbows for all the world to see.
‘Save the World For The Children’ and that's alright by me.
Chorus
I hear the wind through the banners, when I go to sleep at night.
Rustling through the trees, as I lay by the firelight.
We'll keep those banners flying high my friend, until our work is done.
We're gonna make the world a safer place, for every single one.
We fought hard for the trees in the Nightcap,
at Chealundi and Wingham state.
At Aidex and at Pine Gap we were chained up to the gate.
At Emerald beach and Bondi we said, 'Keep Our Oceans Clean'.
Save the world for the children and you know what that means.
I hear the wind through the banners when I go to sleep at night ...
You've seen us in the rallies, at the blockades and on TV.
You've heard us tell the whole wide world how we think things should be.
We are the Rainbow Warriors and our work has just begun.
Make the world a safer place ... for every single one.
I hear the wind through the banners when I go to sleep at night ...
There's an old ragged banner, hanging high up in the trees.
‘Save The World for the children’, blowing in the breeze.
Land Rights flags and rainbows for all the world to see.
‘Save The World For The Children’ and that's alright by me.
I hear the wind through the banners when I go to sleep at night.
Rustling through the trees as I lay by the firelight.
We'll keep those banners flying high my friend, until our work is done.
We're gonna make the world a safer place ... for every … single … one.

Metal Skin Creepers
I have seen the metal skin creepers, mining the precious firestone dust.
They
scan the surface with their metal detectors
then the
drills go down below the crust.
Chorus
Metal skin creepers, heepers jeepers, metal skin creepers ... everywhere.
There
isn't a human among the mob no, I can't see one ... anywhere.
The firestone dust is a deadly fuel, they use it to power the war machine.
The
beast of destruction is out of control
and we
are closer to the edge than we have ever been.
Metal skin creepers, heepers jeepers, metal skin creepers ... everywhere.
There
isn't a human among the mob no, I can't see one ... anywhere.
As we await the closing scene, will the world explode in a flash of light?
Will the
story of man be lost forever, as a star goes out in the dead of night?
Metal skin creepers, heepers jeepers, metal skin creepers ... everywhere.
There
isn't a human among the mob no ... I can't see one ... anywhere.

Well
it's on the television, on the radio' o.
You can read it in the paper if you really want to know.
Chorus
The news
is so confusing, the news is not amusing.
The news

Radio
waves are beaming, the paper boy is screaming
and the
weather girl says it looks like we might be in for a little rain.
Here we go again … here we go again … here we go again … here we go again …
Well you’re sitting there in your lounge room
and your
eyes are on the TV screen,

but you
don't know what they mean.
you feel
a strange sensation but there's nothing you can do
so you
change to another station are you frightened of the truth?
The news is so confusing, the news is not amusing.
The news
just keeps on oozing out into my tortured brain.
Radio
waves are beaming, the paper boy is screaming
and the
weather girl says it looks like we might be in for a little rain.
Here we go again … here we go again …
I'm gonna smash the television and I'll break the radio ' o
and I
think I'll burn the paper because I just don't want to know.
The news is so confusing, the news is not amusing.
The news

Radio
waves are beaming, the paper boy is screaming
and the
weather girl says it looks like we might be in for a little rain.
Here we go again … here we go again … here we go again … here we go again

Once upon a Planet
Once upon a planet in the history of the world
There was a song that became the favorite tune of every boy and girl
On every land across the globe they sang it with optimism and hope
and everybody that heard it had to sing along.
Oh! Yes and …
Once upon a planet when those children
sang their song
They sang it loud and they sang it proud, so it confident and strong
It was a tale by human beings, All about being human being
Come on everybody and help us sing our song.
And
we sing …
We are all
humans ... humans are we
we live on planet earth as she spins around in the galaxy.
When something's bad we ban it, because we love our planet
it's the home of humanity.
Once upon a planet the oceans were all clean
the weather was fine and the earth was rich and the countryside was
green.
The air was fresh and pure, the sky was so much bluer
but we changed that when we came on the scene.
Oh!
yes we ....
let our poison waste spill into rivers lakes and seas
we changed the weather patterns when we chopped down all the trees.
We filled the air with our pollution, but there is one solution
and we call it ... ECOLOGY!
And
we sing ...
We are all humans ... humans are we …
we live on planet earth as she spins around in the galaxy.
When something's bad we ban it, because we love our planet
it's the home of humanity.
Once upon a planet at the edge of the galaxy
at the end of the age of ignorance and the start of a brand new
century.
At the birth of a new generation, and the dawn of a one earth nation
of this multi-cultural family.
Oh! yes we ...
put aside
our differences and we found we were the same
then we put it all down to experience because nobody is to blame.
When we think global and act local, the world becomes our focal point.
we can heal the earth ... in creations name,
And
we sing ...
We are all
humans ... humans are we ...
we live on planet earth as she spins around in the galaxy.
When something's bad we ban it, because we love our planet
it's the home of humanity.
(Music
slows with a vocal retardation)
Once upon a
planet some children sang a song
That soon became so popular the whole world sang along.
It was sung by every nation at a worldwide celebration
By a choir that was ten billion people strong.
And we sang …
We are all
humans ... humans are we ...
we live on planet earth as she spins around in the galaxy.
When something's bad we ban it, because we love our planet
it's the home of humanity.
(Repeat
chorus)
We
are all humans ... humans are we ...
we live on
planet earth as she spins around in the galaxy.
When something's bad we ban it, because we love our planet
it's the home … of humanity
(Music
slows down with a vocal retardation on the word, …
Hu … ooo!
ooo! maaaaan … I … I … I … I … tee … ee … ee … ee … ee … ee … eeeee!)

The
Rainbow Dream
Faster than the speed of thought rainbow circles spiral down
into the middle of a rainbow ring, hand in hand we dance around.
Chorus
Red,
orange, yellow and green, blue and purple rainbow dream.
Red, orange, yellow and green, blue and purple rainbow dream.
Come to where the bluebirds fly, over the rainbow way up high
if birds can fly then so can I, up into the clear blue sky.
Red, orange, yellow and green, blue and purple
rainbow dream ...
Red,
orange, yellow and green, blue and purple rainbow dream ...
The rainbow aura of the earth, is a gift from Mother Nature to us all at birth
a bridge
from darkness into light, a reminder to us all of what is right.
Red, orange, yellow and green blue and purple rainbow dream …
Faster than the speed of thought, rainbow circles spiral down
into the
middle of a rainbow ring, hand in hand we dance around.
Red, orange, yellow and green, blue and purple rainbow dream ...
Red,
orange, yellow and green, blue and purple rainbow dream.

You're
in the Big smoke, Big smoke city.
In the
Big smoke, Big smoke, you're in the Big smoke.
Big
smoke city, Big smoke city, Big smoke city ... Alright!

You're
in the Big smoke, Big smoke city.
In the
Big smoke, Big smoke, you're in the Big smoke.
Big
smoke city, Big smoke city, Big smoke city ... Alright!
Well
that street life circus, makes me so nervous.
The
things I've got to do to, earn a crust.
It's a barren
waste, a sea of faces, and there isn't a soul that … I can trust.
In the Big smoke, Big smoke, in the Big smoke, Big smoke city.
In the
Big smoke … Big smoke, in the Big smoke.
Big
smoke city, you bad old city, on the surface you look so pretty.
Big
smoke city, Yeah! ... That's my home.
Street lights flashing, among the trash ... crimes of passion, ashes to ashes.
You're in the Big smoke … Big smoke.
You're
in the Big smoke, Big smoke city.
In the
Big smoke, Big smoke, you're in the Big smoke.
Big
smoke city, Big smoke city, Big smoke city ... Alright!
Well

I'm
gonna give that woman just, one more try.
So if
you happen to see me, alone at the bar,

one more drink
before I die.
In the Big smoke, Big smoke, in the Big smoke, Big smoke city.
In the
Big smoke … Big smoke, in the Big smoke.
Big

This World
This world is yours and this world is mine.
From the
age of love, till the end of time.
This world is yours and this world is mine.
From the age of love, till the end of time.
(This section is yet to be recorded)
Tell the whole wide world it's time to get on the same page
to break the lock on the door and climb out of the cage
We're moving towards the future
and we're taking it to the sunny side of town.
This world is yours, this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.
This world is yours and this world is mine
what we do now will determine our time.
Planet earth is in a mess. Apathy means you don’t care less.
The
teen tribe is on the move, teaching the old world to get in the groove.
Take
it over baby … take it over right now.
This world is yours, this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.
This
world is yours and this world is mine.
What
we do now will determine our time.
I was led to led to believe we inherit this Earth,
to
exploit and control for whatever it’s worth.
But
if the truth were to be known it is the other way around.
It
belongs to the children, let’s keep it safe and sound.
This world is yours, this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.
This
world is yours and this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.
We gonna make this planet a safer place to live.
We’ve
taken away so much but now we’ve got so much to give
We’re
doing it for the children … we’re doing it right now,… Baby!
RAP!
Yeah! I am skating close to the edge,
I
don’t know what I should believe.
I
get so many opinions about this life I’m living here.
They
say “you got to reduce your impact,
C’mon
buy a brand new car.
Tomorrow
will take care of itself,
that’s
just the way things are.
But
I say “who am I to indulge in the lap of luxury?”
While
we tinker on extinction in this land of liberty.
Who
am I to say this world is mine to throw away?
Just
like some worthless piece of garbage
in
a gutter or a bin.
I
don’t know what I should be doing
to
be part of the big solution
I
don’t know what there is to believe in
about
this world I’m living in.
This world is yours and this world is mine.
From
the age of love, till the end of time.
This
world is yours and this world is mine.
what
we do now, will determine our time.
This world is yours, this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.
This
world is yours and this world is mine.
From
the Age of love, till the end of time.

The Mess-Age
You stand before the Money God and for mercy you pray.
The chips are down on the trading floor at the end of the day.
You lost it all to the Money game now your dream won't come true.
I don't believe in the Money God and I've got a message here for you.
Chorus
This is it, this is the Mess-age you've got to read ... between the lines.
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you can't believe a word he says
he's lying all the time.
The Money God makes a promise that he knows he cannot keep.
Now the debt to the global system, is getting far too steep.
The cost to the world of nature is too far beyond our means.
I don't believe in the Money God cause he ain't quite what he seems
That's right.
This is it, this is the Mess-age you've got to read ... between the lines.
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you can't believe a word he says
he's lying all the time.
All alone, in the line of fire, we caught you out to be a liar.
To be a fake, a false Messiah, but now your time, your time has come.
We might just make some history by cleaning up our mess.
If you want to be slave to the Money God, well you can be my guest.
Become a part of the global movement, if you long for world improvement.
You can help us to clean this mess that we have made.
It's just a stage of evolution so be part of the revolution.
Stand up! for your rights to have a say.
If you
believe you've got no power and with every passing hour
the situation becomes a little more, out of hand.
Then like tidal wave of terror, expose the fundamental error
in our behaviour upon this timeless ... sacred land … Lord!
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you've got to think between the lines.
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you've got to think between the lines.
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you've got to THINK! between the lines.
This is it, this is the Mess-age, you've got to think ...'Big!'.
All alone, in the line of fire, we caught you out to be a liar.

Reason
or Rhyme
When I look up at the stars in the evening sky
you know it makes me feel so small.
Then my thoughts begin to wander, and it makes me wonder
if there’s a reason for it all.
The secrets of life are a mystery and I suppose we will never ever know.
If there’s a purpose for creation, it’s a fascination
but I guess that is just how it goes
So sit back and relax, come on and check out the show.
Chorus
The world is a stage and we are the actors,
in the greatest production of all time.
If you don’t understand, the law of the land
believe me that is not a crime.
Cause there’s no reason, no reason or rhyme.
The law of the land, is the law of man
we are exempt from the laws of nature so it seems
or else then, how could it be, the devastation you see.
Will you heed the call before the earth begins to scream?
The rednecks and the greenies are at loggerheads
and there are points to go in favour of each side.
If there is common ground, you can be sure it will be found
beneath the feet of every person, from both sides.
We are in this together, how ever the truth may divide.
The world is a stage and we are the actors …
(This is a newly written verse as yet unrecorded)
If you look down upon the earth from up in, outer space
you’ll
see the closest thing to heaven there may be.
but
there’s a sticky situation, in every single nation
because
paradise has fallen to it’s knees
it’s
up to the human species to get it back up on it’s feet
so
the children will go on in history.
it’s
a sticky situation, in every single nation
it’s
time to be the best that we can be.
The world is a stage and we are the actors,
in the greatest production of all time
If you don’t understand the law of the land
believe me that is not a crime. Cause there’s no reason, no reason or rhyme.
Yes there’s no reason, no reason or rhyme.
