Emergency On Planet Earth Jamiroquai The kids need education, And the streets are never clean, I've seen, a certain disposition, prevailing in the wind, Sweet change, if anybody's listening? Emergency on planet earth. Is that life that I am witnessing, Or just another wasted birth. Now, we got emergency Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth Now, we got emergency Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth Think we're standing for injustice, White gets two and black gets five years, Took me quite a while to suss this, But now I know my head is cleared And a little boy in hungry land, is just a picture in the news, Won't see him in that TV advertising, 'cause it might put you off your food Now, we got emergency Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth Now, we got emergency Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
THE DOORS "Ship Of Fools" The human race was dyin' out Noone left to scream and shout People walking on the moon Smog will get you pretty soon Everyone was hanging out Hanging up and hanging down Hanging in and holding fast Hope our little world will last Yeah, along came Mr. Goodtrips Looking for a new a ship Come on, people better climb on board Come on, baby, now we're going home Ship of fools, ship of fools The human race was dyin' out Noone left to scream and shout People walking on the moon Smog will get you pretty soon Ship of fools, ship of fools Ship of fools, ship of fools Ship of fools, ship of fools [improv and fade]
The DOORS as a group were highly intellectual men. Hieronymus Bosch was Jim Morrison's favorite artist and The Ship Of Fools is one of his paintings. The painting is about humanity. How ridiculous life is and how petty we are, while our ship(life) floats aimlessly and never reaches port. I think in this song they're inviting us onto a ship we're already on, so it's completely ironic. Unless you fail to get on board the ship, then life will leave you behind. PhilosophicalViking

"When You Gonna Learn" Yeah, yeah Have you heard the news today? People right across the world, Are pledging they will play the game, Victims of a modern world, Circumstance has brought us here, Armageddon's come too near, Too, too near, now Foresight is the only key To save our children's destiny, The consequences are so grave So, so grave, now The hypocrites we are their slaves. So my friends to stop the end On each other we depend, Oh we depend. Mountain high and river deep, Stop it going on, We gotta wake this world up from its sleep. Oh people, Stop it going on, Yeah, yeah Have you heard the news today? Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant, Now don't talk about quantity, There's no fish let in the sea. Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was, And you'd better play it natures way, Or she will take it all away, Don't try and tell me you know more than her about right from wrong, Now you've upset the balance, man, Done the only thing you can, Now my life is in your hands, Moutain high and river deep. Oh yeah Stop it going on, We gotta wake this world up from its sleep. Oh people, Stop it going on, Moutain high and river deep. Oh yeah Stop it going on, We gotta wake this world up from its sleep. Oh people, Stop it going on, Greedy men will fade away, When we stop it going on, I know it's got to be that way, Oh people, Stop it going on, I'm asking, Oh When you gonna learn To stop it going on? When you gonna learn To stop it going on? When you gonna learn To stop it going on?
