WHEN IT’S 2012

====================================
Oh, this happy life
We’ve enjoyed up until this day
Our prosperity, and our liberty
We've taken for granted, but we
May wake up some day to find they’re gone
Oh, I want to say
How I love this blessed life
Given free to us, like a sacred trust;
So much we have to learn,
There’s some hurdles left
Stuff we have to get through
We may be all out of time
May be the end of the line
Be at peace with yourself
When it’s 2012
Greed for money, greed for power
Can’t survive this fateful hour
Earth on ice or earth on fire, either
Make room for the higher power
We may be all out of time
May be the end of the line
Be at peace with yourself
When it’s 2012
Brand new babies born from test tubes
Others can’t survive in their wombs
What becomes of earth so dear, when
40 nations go nuclear
We may be all out of time
May be the end of the line
Be at peace with yourself
When it’s 2012
Hurricanes & floods & earthquakes
Added to man's own mistakes, our
Life as we have known will fall
After they declare martial law
We may be all out of time
May be the end of the line
Be at peace with yourself
When it’s 2012
