Earthquake

Wyclef Jean · Other Songs - Wyclef Jean

Yeah, aye

Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake, in the past of Chile

Earthquake, in the hand Indonesia

Earthquake, in the events of China

Earthquake, is comin' to America

Earthquakes are there in California

Earthquake, warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is gettin' angry

I asked Earth what have we done

She said we buildin' too much bombs

So there's too many sons that won't see their father

Too many daughters that won't see their mother

Too many grandmas that won't see their grand-kids

'Cause they are in the rubble in Port Au Prince

Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake, in the past of Chile

Earthquake, in the hand Indonesia

Earthquake, in the events of China

Earthquake, is comin' to America

Earthquakes are there in California

Earthquake, warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is gettin' angry

That's when the earth started talkin' rude

Say she's thirteen, she's a prostitute

I tried to beg for the young girl's life

But when the earthquake came, it took her to the other side

Then I asked the Earth, who's next?

She said, those that's polluting the planet

They killin' everything, movin' flowers and abusing mankind

And the only thing left is Armageddon

Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake, in the past of Chile

Earthquake, in the hand Indonesia

Earthquake, in the events of China

Earthquake, is comin' to America

Earthquakes are there in California

Earthquake, warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is gettin' angry

And as much as we take it for granted

We might not have no bed to lie in tonight, whoa, aye

And this birth, yes, we take it for granted

Our kids might get no ice-cream tonight, whoa, aye

And this birth, yes, we take it for granted

We might not kiss our loved ones tonight

And if we want the Earth to be better

Let's start spreadin' some love on the planet called Earth

Let's start spreadin' some goodness on the planet called Earth

Let's start spreadin' some kindness, yeah, aye

Let's get rid of the weekenders, whoa, aye

One love, one heart, one soul

(Daddy, what's an earthquake?)

The shakin' and the tremblin' of the earth

My generation

The only way I feel I can help

Is if I become the President of my country
