Lyrics This Island Earth - Todd Rundgren

This Island Earth

They say there may well be a million other planets just like this island Earth
And that the day will come when we can travel there and stage some kind of
rebirth
Until you realize they’re so far away, so far away, light years away
There is no other place in this universe like this island Earth
We fantasize about despoiling other worlds like this island Earth
Some believe that aliens are testing us like they had eyes on this island Earth
We get amusement from crop circles or when a cow gets inverted
We want to think that we’re not alone, we’re not alone, all on our own
There are no aliens looking to take over this island Earth
We are the only ones to blame for what becomes of this island Earth
Because the garden world where we used to thrive
Will be a place where nothing living survives
Then we finally realize we must strive to save this island Earth?
There is no other place in this universe like this island Earth
We have all the water in the galaxy, for what that is worth
We behave like we’re not of this world
We turn the Garden of Eden to Hell
Where is the love for this island Earth?
For this island Earth?
