Nowhere Else to Go

歌詞

They're pulling down our house to make a supermarket The bathroom will be full of tins of beans Somewhere there's a man with a special master plan I think this is what progress means I'll have to find a new place for the budgie I'll have to find a new place for my bed A bulldozer was waiting, there's no need for hesitating So I went up to the driver and I said: This place is our place, it's nothing very fancy sir, I know But it's all that we have got, so I'm asking you to stop 'Cause there's really nowhere else for us to go No, there's really nowhere else for us to go They're pulling down the forest with their diesel chainsaws Tearing down the bushes and the trees Filling in the holes which give shelter to the voles And burning all the shady leaves The foxes and the badgers will be homeless The spiders, ants and every living thing The weasels were all worried, until out a rabbit scurried He said, "Gather round the lumberjacks and sing": This place is our place, it's nothing very fancy sir, I know But it's all that we have got, so I'm asking you to stop 'Cause there's really nowhere else for us to go No, there's really nowhere else for us to go They're knocking down the world to build a great big car park Soon there will be concrete everywhere No clean sea for the dolphin swimming free Not a breath of clean fresh air The world belongs to animals as well sir The plants all have their place upon the land It's the only one, so it's time that we began To sing and make them understand (please listen): This place is our place, it's nothing very fancy sir, I know But it's all that we have got, so I'm asking you to stop 'Cause there's really nowhere else for us to go No, there's really nowhere else for us to go
