HOWARD JONES - Exodus lyrics

They're sending back pictures from saturn and mars

Maybe this will be our new home

Well we seem to have messed up

And we must look to the stars

Our paradise we seem to have outgrown

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane

Well we've been much too greedy

Wanting too much to fast

But we have to say we are what we are

Well the trees and the plants and the animals have gone

Long ago

Used to be real air to breath, they say so

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for new life

Anyway it's too late for what might have been

Kiss the earth goodbye and get out of here

If there's anybody out there

Hope they haven't made the same mistakes

Turning gold into garbage and a banquet into dustcakes

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for new life

Join the line

Put down your name

Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane

Get ready for new life
