Hope Things Get Better 
For the Earth and the Trees 
Save the Air From Our Toxins 
And the Water From a Freeze 
But Don't Sit Back, Everything Won't Be Just Fine 
Save From Becoming Deadly, Our Sweet Sunshine 

But Someday You'll Understand 
That It's Not Just Our Land 
Pass It On to Our Children's Hands 
Someday You'll Understand 

The Air We Breathe and the Water That We Drink 
Does the Burning Bush Ever Stop to Think 
About the Future, About the Past 
He'll Be Dead in 20 Years But Will Our Infants Last 

But Someday You'll Understand 
That It's Not Just Our Land 
Pass It On to Our Children's Hands 
Someday You'll Understand 

Go to the Mountains and Lie On the Grass 
Fall Asleep in the Sunshine 
Let the Sweet Time Pass 
Then Maybe You'll Understand 
What We're Trying to Save 
We Wanna Leave Our Kids a Beautiful World 
Not Dig Their Graves 

But Someday You'll Understand 
That It's Not Just Our Land 
Pass It On to Our Children's Hands 
Someday You'll Understand 

Hope Things Get Better 
For the Earth and the Trees 
Save the Air From Our Toxins 
And the Water From a Freeze 
But Don't Sit Back, Everything Won't Be Just Fine 
Save From Becoming Deadly, Our Sweet Sunshine 

But Someday You'll Understand 
That It's Not Just Our Land 
Pass It On to Our Children's Hands 
Someday You'll Understand 

Green Trees and White Sand 
Pass Them On to Our Children's Hands 
Someday You'll Understand 
Someday You'll Understand
