What We Gonna Do? music and lyrics Planetboy
Slash and burn down trees
Fill the oceans with disease
The skies are choking up with acid rain
We're causing climate change
Fossil fuel energy exchange
And planet earth is showing signs of strain
Is there anything that we can do today
To stop our world from falling to those who say
Economic growth will cure our ills
Are we so blind that we don't see
That this culture kills
What we gonna do with the changing world - We're living in
What we gonna do when we realise we can't turn back time
What we gonna do with the changing world - We're living in
Left to me and you tell me what we gonna do
What we gonna do, What we gonna do , What we gonna do
It's change, change, change for me and you
Polar ice recedes
And swells the rising seas -
Glaciers are melting in the heat
Floods are at the door
While drought affects the poor
Deserts grow while fertile lands retreat
Now it's everything we're pushing to the edge
Our existence hangs here by a thread
Politicians can't work out this mess
Are we so blind that we don't see
That more is less
chorus
How we gonna feel when we can't
Turn this tide - Run or hide - Cause we've been fed lies
Help me - listen
Tomorrows plans are in our hands
You gotta make a stand - Its just one world - For me and you

Big Day in L.A. music and lyrics Planetboy
You’ve come so far, As you stand outside the Chapel,
The neon signs light up this street
A glitter town, You’ve come a long, long way from your home,
And there’s a New World at your feet.
You’ve left the sneers,
And whispered conversation,
The knowing looks that came your way.
The small town doors,
Have all slammed shut behind you,
Ignorance makes them afraid
You stand alone, just waiting for your moment,
A precious moment shared by two.
No bands of gold, for truths untold,
No hearts to break or vows to fake.
No one to blame or feeling shame,
It’s your big day in L.A.
There’s no one there, no friend or witness.
There’s not a soul to wish you well.
And passing by, the spirit moves you,
You’ve finally left your living hell
You’ve cut the ties, That once held you so tightly,
You’ve left the guilt they heaped on you.
You’re walking tall, With chains broken behind you,
Now you know what you must do
It’s no surprise to know you’re lonely,
But can’t you see they’re lonely too?
No bands of gold, for truths untold.
No hearts to break or vows to fake.
No one to blame or feeling shame.
It’s your soul mate and true loves fate
No bands of gold, for truths untold.
No hearts to break or vows to fake.
No one to blame or feeling shame,
It’s your big day in L.A.
Reach Out, Touch, Understand
music PlanetBoy, Ian Newman lyrics Planetboy
Angels slay for golden sand
Fear puts the gun in his hand…with my life
Rage replaces stolen land
Fighting puts a gun in his hand…with my life
Men in chains have no tomorrow
Fight the cause without sorrow
Ancient words are heaven sent
Whose justice lies in punishment
An angry voice of pain and tears
To right the wrongs of all the years
Reach out, touch, understand
Something there calls my name
Will the world ever change?
Can we find a better way?
Do we know another way?
Life with bitter twisted tears
Shaking hands point guns out of fear…at my life
Heaven sees the windswept man
Buried with his gun in the sand…is my life
Warriors wave their knives and guns
And call to arms avenging sons
Theirs will be a martyr’s end
Who take the lives of innocents
Angels play with golden sand,
Shining with a gun in hand
Fight the cause with devotion,
Men of shame have no emotion
Death replaces stolen lands,
Fighting put a gun in his hand, With my life
Men in chains in desert oceans,
Fight the cause of devotion
Angry faces stain the sand,
Frightened put a gun in his hand, In his hand
With my lif

Someday Somehow music and lyrics Planetboy
A golden sun slips into,
A burning crimson sky,
And tears began to fall down,
As I look into her eyes.
She turns to whisper something,
She says it’s you and me,
Its time to walk separate ways,
It’s time we both were free.
And as she spoke, the heavens broke,
Here comes the wind and rain.
I knew in that moment
It would never be the same
Someday - Summer rain will wash away
Love lies are tearing me apart inside
Someone - Near to you
Will help you through
Dark nights - Soon become warm sunlight
Someday Somehow - Someday soon now
Shadows in the sunset,
Are fading with the light,
And disappeared forever,
As jewels lit up the night
The words she spoke were tender,
I wanted her to stay,
I’d said goodbye to part of me,
When she walked out that day
And as I looked into her eyes,
I saw she felt the pain,
I knew in a moment,
It would never be the same
Chorus
Summer tears that fall down
Turn into a stream
And flow down through the river to the sea
When I find my feet again
And see what’s here for me
I’ll realise that this is not a dream
America
music Planetboy, T. Chapman, N. Clow lyricsPlanetboy
We set sail in search of America
One New World, somewhere to build our dreams.
Say goodbye to Tsars and Emperors
We would go to somewhere we’d be free.
On a cold September morn
We set sail as persecuted souls.
In the heart of the Mayflowers hold
Were prayers and hopes of young and old.
We left these shores in search of America
One New World, somewhere to build our dreams.
Say goodbye to Tsars and Emperors
Like tears in the sea, we’d be free.
On the edge of his desert homeland
One young brave tries hard to understand.
‘Cause he believes no man can own the land,
He lost his rights, they took his life.
Someone asked, “What did you call America,
Before we came with railroad, guns and cars?”
A wise old chief, on his head an eagles tail feather,
Looked in his eyes and said, “We called it ours.”
On that cold September morn
We betrayed those persecuted souls.
In the heart of the States we’d create
Were prayers and hopes of young and old.
So we came in search of America
Our New World was theirs just yesterday.
They never knew a Tsar, a King, or Emperor
So we gave to them…. a President
Your Country Needs You
music T. Chapman - lyrics Planetboy
He was born 1893
He’d grow up and join the infantry
He had his pride and kept to his faith
A King and Country were something to save
He’d never seen an aeroplane
His world had steam trains
For Honour and Glory
This is his story
They sent a boy off to die in the Great War
Times like these your country needs you
They said when it ends we won’t fight no more
A hundred years on and the fighting’s not through
They left for adventure as innocent sons
And marched into Hell to face mechanised guns
That spat out the bullets with industrial might
Whilst screams of the daytime haunted the night
Towns lost a whole generation
In one day of annihilation
Monuments would begin to rise
As the young were asked to pay with their lives
Families lost brothers fathers lost sons
Over the top to face the enemy guns
They cared for each other in the darkest of times
And followed the orders all down the lines
He left for the Somme in 1916
And witnessed the most unimaginable scene
In trenches of death they would gasp their last breath
In No Mans Land they were slain like lambs
Remember the great sacrifice
Remember those who laid down their lives

No Hiding Place
music Chapman lyrics PlanetBoy
I hear the call from a foreign land
Drifting round as they live from day to day
They’re calling out for a helping hand
As time slips away
There’s no right there’s no wrong
It’s just the way it is
It’s not a dream but a nightmare
They’re living in
We’re down the road, wondering how
The hell it came to this
Where do we begin?
I feel the pressure
That’s building up inside of me
I can’t control it - it’s just a part of me
I feel the pressure
That’s burning like a fire in me
Make no mistake
There’s no hiding place
They live in hope in a makeshift town
Many are lost as they watch the hands of time
Their world is shattered and fallen down
Who’s next in line?

Next Trains Gone
music PlanetBoy, Clow lyrics PlanetBoy
My worlds gone crazy somewhat insane
I got your voice spinning round inside my brain
I got tears and fears, heartache and pain
You know
Only when it’s dark can you see the light
So the stars are shining bright tonight
I guess I’ve missed the chance to set things right
I was wrong now you’re gone
You never found what you were looking for
You got a one way ticket to go
And as I’m running down to platform four
I somehow know, you’ll never show
The next trains already gone
The last one didn’t come along
I missed the one that you got on
You know
The next trains already gone
The ticket man said move along
You can’t wait forever son
Don’t you know, it’s time to go
I’m at the crossroads along the tracks
Did I sell my soul cause the blues is back?
The bedrooms empty and your bags been packed
I’m alone on my own
Your destination is outta here
I got the picture you made it clear
Being together just disappeared
Oh I know I’ve got to let go

Take Me By The Hand
Music PlanetBoy, Newman - Lyrics PlanetBoy
Well I know its getting late but I need a place to stay
Is there nowhere I can go you will have to let me know?
Help me see this through, it is one thing I must do
I have earned the right to choose, now let’s see if right comes true
Take me by the hand and lead me through the Promised Land
Take me by the hand, lead me to the Promised Land
The winner takes us all but I’ll be here when she falls
If you’d listened from the start, you’d have heard the hardest part
Find out what its for, there is more of this in store
The games that people play, win or lose its just the same
I had to be involved with you is spite of all the things you do
And when you thought you had it made you didn’t think to hesitate
You already know a war with words may come to blows
Ruining my plans, your eyes don’t see the Promised Land

Not This Time
music PlanetBoy, Newman - Lyrics Planetboy
The summit ends with no conclusion
A mountains climbed without solutions
And their reactions so collected
Puppet strings are now accepted
Not this time, yea, not this time
Not this time, yea, not this time
Yea -Yea, Yea -Yea -Yea
Another crisis leads to danger
Every blow releases anger
And this hurt feels the same
A hundred ways to point the blame
Yea but nothing seems to change
No no no, no no no
Out of sight and out of mind
Its not this time
music PlanetBoy, Newman - Lyrics Planetboy
