Hungry Planet lyrics

Written by skip battin, kim fowley, and roger mcguinn

I`m a hungry planet
I had a youthful face
They were in a hurry
To go to outer space
They needed bombs and tungsten
Ore and iron too
So they climbed and they dug and they blew
Divided me right in two
I`m a hungry planet
Orbiting in the sky
The things they did to hurt me
Pass on by and by


Now here i am all alone
They never ever learn
Well i had to shake and quake
And make their houses burn
I`m a hungry planet
I had the bluest seas
Oh the people kept choppin` down
All my finest trees
Poisonin` my oxygen
Diggin` into my skin
Takin` more out of my good earth
Than they`ll ever put back in
I`m a hungry planet
