Hello Earth

Hello, earth Hello, earth With just one hand held up high I can blot you out, Out of sight. Peek-a-boo, Peek-a-boo, little earth. With just my heart and my mind I can be driving, Driving home, And you asleep On the seat. I get out of my car, Step into the night And look up at the sky. And there's something bright, Travelling fast. Look at it go! Look at it go! ("listen!") Watching storms Start to form Over america. Can't do anything. Just watch them swing With the wind Out to sea. All you sailors, ("get out of the waves! get out of the water!") All life-savers, ("get out of the waves! get out of the water!") All you cruisers, ("get out of the waves! get out of the water!") All you fishermen, Head for home. Go to sleep, little earth. I was there at the birth, Out of the cloudburst, The head of the tempest. Murderer! Murder of calm. Why did I go? Why did I go? "Tiefer, tiefer. Irgendwo in der tiefe Gibt es ein licht." Go to sleep little earth.
