Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Only came outside to watch the nightfall with the rain
I heard you making patterns rhyme
Like some new romantic looking for the TV sound
You'll see I'm right some other time, love
[Chorus]
Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices, another sound
Can you hear me now?
[Chorus]
This is planet Earth
You're looking at planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
This is planet Earth
[Verse 2]
My head is stuck on something precious
Let me know if you're coming down to land
Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes so cloudy I can't see you
[Chorus]
Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices, another sound
Can you hear me now?
[Chorus]
This is planet Earth
You're looking at planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
This is planet Earth
[Chorus]
Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices, another sound
Can you hear me now?
[Chorus]
This is planet Earth
You're looking at planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
This is planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
Calling planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
Looking at planet Earth
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba
This is planet Earth
