Words and music by John Kay and Michael Wilk



Got nothin' more to show ya, there ain't no more to say

You know the mess we made, it just will not go away

It's what we get for acting like a herd of sheep and swine

It's time to pay the piper and we're running out of time

We got to change the way we do the things we do

And we need everyone aboard to make it through



It's do or die, we got to turn the ship around

It ain't no lie, we're 'bout to burn, we're about to drown

It's do or die, we got to learn or we'll go down together

There ain't no captain here to teach us how to steer

There's just the crew, that's me and you



There ain't no easy answer, there ain't no magic tricks

It can't wait until tomorrow, you can't fix it in the mix

Come join the rainbow warriors, help us fight this dirty war

The enemy is everywhere, he's waitin' right behind your door

We got to hold the line or go down in defeat

Do what you can to help, take only what you need



It's do or die, we got to turn the ship around

It ain't no lie, we're 'bout to burn, we're 'bout to drown

It's do or die, we got to learn or we'll go down together

There'll be no Calvary to come and set us free

There's just the sea and you and me
