"Hope things get better
For the earth and the trees
Save the air from our toxins
And the water from a freeze
But don't sit back, everything won't be just fine

Save from becoming deadly, our sweet sunshine

But someday you'll understand
That it's not just our land
Pass it on to our children's hands
Someday you'll understand

The air we breathe and the water that we drink
Does the burning Bush ever stop to think
About the future, about the past
He'll be dead in 20 years but will our infants last

But someday you'll understand
That it's not just our land
Pass it on to our children's hands
Someday you'll understand

Go to the mountains and lie on the grass
Fall asleep in the sunshine
Let the sweet time pass
Then maybe you'll understand
What we're trying to save
We wanna leave our kids a beautiful world
Not dig their graves

But someday you'll understand
That it's not just our land
Pass it on to our children's hands
Someday you'll understand

Hope things get better
For the earth and the trees
Save the air from our toxins
And the water from a freeze
But don't sit back, everything won't be just fine
Save from becoming deadly, our sweet sunshine

But someday you'll understand
That it's not just our land
Pass it on to our children's hands
Someday you'll understand

Green trees and white sand
Pass them on to our children's hands
Someday you'll understand
Someday you'll understand"
