I see a day and it’s not too far
Getting our energy from the sun
We’ll draw our power from the nearest star
Getting our energy from the sun
(Chorus)
Well, I want to be ready, I want to be ready
I want to be ready
Getting our energy from the sun
Nowadays we all move so fast (gettin’ our energy from the sun)
Using up coal, oil and gas (getting’ our energy from the sun)
They turn our skies from blue to black (getting’ our energy from the sun)
And when they’re gone they won’t be back (getting our energy from the sun)
It’ll run most anything free and clean
From a little bitty watch to a big machine
For every creature on this earth
We gotta’ use the sun for all it’s worth
When you grow up I hope you’ll find
A whole world running on sunshine
Learn to drive in a electric car
Be a rock and roller on a solar guitar
