All those stories that used to say
There's a new world begins today
Bad old days just a memory
Trouble is that it seems to me - yeah, yeah, yeah
It's the same old planet

Golden dreams of a golden age
Silver tongue of an ancient sage
When the prose is half fulfilled
Seems it's time for you to pay all the bills - no, no no
Not on the planet

I had a vision the other night
Woken up by an angel of light
She sang a song so pure and bright
A simple tale of how it might have been

My political friend tells me I've got to fight
He says I've got to stand up for my rights
Well that's all right my friend you know I will
Just one thing you know - I ain't gonna kill - no, no no
Not on the planet

Go take me flying out of this place 
To another time and some other space 
I'm just another soldier fallen from grace 
Won't you see me with a smile on my face

No,no,no
Not on the planet 
(Not on the planet) 
It's a new world 
(Not on the planet) 
It's the same old planet 
(Not on the planet) 
It's a new world 
(Not on the planet) 
But it's the same old planet 
(Not on the planet) 
It's a new world 
(Not on the planet) 
It's the same old planet 
(Not on the planet) 
It's a new world 
(Not on the planet) 
It's the same old planet 
(Not on the planet)
