I Love Planet Earth
ELENI MANDELL
The sun reflected on a passing car
Flashed like a signal or a star
I saw myself die under an on coming semi
Wanting to say I love planet earth
One road goes through the reservation
With one casino and one gas station
Rusted VW bug upside down
By the side of the road
Wanting to say I love planet earth
Acres of golden hills before us
Turn blue and lavender too
In the rear view mirror
If I was a hawk I'd circle the mountains
Set sail moon over Oklahoma
Spindly trees lead you to New Orleans
Wanting to say I love planet earth
Majestic red rocks stand like walls
Black clouds like fists beat the sky
God help us all
If I was the land I'd wear my hair down
If I was the sea I'd follow the sun
If I was the sky I'd open my arms
Wanting to say I love planet earth
