Emergency On Planet Earth

Written by Jay Kay and Toby Smith



The kids need education

And the streets are never clean

I've seen a certain disposition, prevailing in the wind,

Sweet change if anybody's listening?

Emergency on Planet Earth

Is that life that I am witnessing

Or just another wasted birth



We got emergency

Emergency on Planet Earth



Think we're standing for injustice

White gets two and black gets five years,

Took me quite a while to suss this,

But now I know my head is cleared

And a little boy in hungry land, is just a picture in the news,

Change shoes

Won't see him in the TV advertising,

Cause it might put you off your food



We got emergency

Emergency on Planet Earth
