Planet Earth 1988

[Verse 1]

The solution to peace isn't clear

The terrorist threat is a modern fear

There are no jobs for the young

They turn to crime and turn to drugs

Battle ships crowd the sea

16 year olds in the army

Our jails are filled to the max

Discrimination against the blacks

[Chorus]

Planet Earth 1988

Planet Earth 1988

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late!

[Verse 2]

Russian and American war machine

Will destroy mankind's dream

They shoot their missiles in the air

They do not care, they do not care

Guerrilla armies rule the street

No more Christmas or trick or treat

Is this what the future will bring?

I pray for peace more than anything

[Chorus]

Planet Earth 1988

Planet Earth 1988

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late!

[Verse 3]

The solution to peace isn't clear

The terrorists threat is a modern fear

There is no future for the youth

There is no hope for the young

Death destruction bombs galore

The rich are laughing at the poor

Our jails are filled to the max

Discrimination against the blacks

[Chorus]

Planet Earth 1988

Planet Earth 1988

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late!
