    The song laments the destruction humans have caused to the natural world and raises questions about the environment, animals, war, and human suffering. It asks "what about" the sunrise, rain, killing fields, elephants, whales, forests that have been destroyed and wonders if we will stop to notice the bloodshed and crying Earth. It questions what has happened to peace, dreams, and children who have died in war and if we will work to help the common man, end suffering, and care about future generations.

    Earth song I need you (What about us?

    )
    Artist: Michael Jackson What about nature's worth? (Ooh)
    It's our planet's womb
    What about sunrise?
    What about rain?
    (What about us?)
    What about all the things
    That you said we were to gain? What about animals? (What about it?)
    What about killing fields? We've turned kingdoms to dust (What about us?)
    Is there a time? What about elephants? (What about us?)
    What about all the things
    That you said was yours and mine? Have we lost their trust (What about us?)
    Did you ever stop to notice What about crying whales? (What about us?)
    All the blood we've shed before? We're ravaging the seas (What about us?)
    Did you ever stop to notice What about forest trails? (Ooh)
    This crying Earth, these weeping shores? Burnt despite our pleas

    What have we done to the world? (What about us?)


    Look what we've done
    What about all the peace What about the holy land? (What about it?)
    That you pledge your only son? Torn apart by creed (What about us?)
    What about flowering fields? What about the common man? (What about us?)
    Is there a time? Can't we set him free (What about us?)
    What about children dying? (What about us?)
    What about all the dreams Can't you hear them cry? (What about us?)
    That you said was yours and mine?
    Did you ever stop to notice Where did we go wrong?

    All the children dead from war? Someone tell me why

    Did you ever stop to notice


    This crying Earth, these weeping shores? (What about us?)

    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah What about baby boy? (What about it?)

    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh What about the days? (What about us?)


    What about all their joy? (What about us?)
    I used to dream What about the man? (What about us?)
    I used to glance beyond the stars
    Now I don't know where we are What about the crying man? (What about us?)
    Although I know we've drifted far What about Abraham? (What about us?)
    What about death again?
    Hey, what about yesterday? (What about us?) Do we give a damn?
    What about the seas? (What about us?)
    The heavens are falling down (What about us?) Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
    I can't even breathe (What about us?) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
    What about apathy? (What about us?) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
