I'M CALLED BY YOU AS 'EARTHWORM'.
WILL YOU LEAVE ME SOME 'EARTH' FOR MY KIDS?
IF I NEED TO GIVE YOU SHADE, I HAVE TO STAND
TO STAND UPRIGHT,
MY ROOTS NEED EARTH'S SUPPORT
WILL YOU LEAVE ME SOME EARTH?
Stripes on me strikes you
Why doesn't it strike to you
I share this earth with you.
I MAY BE ATTRACTIVE TO YOUR EYES
BUT SHOULDN'T I NEED MY FEATHERS
TO ATTRACT MY MATE?
WILL YOU LEAVE ME SOME 'EARTH' FOR MY KIDS?
IF I NEED TO GIVE YOU SHADE, I HAVE TO STAND
TO STAND UPRIGHT,
MY ROOTS NEED EARTH'S SUPPORT
WILL YOU LEAVE ME SOME EARTH?
Stripes on me strikes you
Why doesn't it strike to you
I share this earth with you.
I MAY GROW BIG
AND YOU KNOW MY BRAIN IS SMALL
BUT WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE SMALL?
I MAY BE IN SKY
AND NOT SITTING ON EARTH
DON'T YOU KNOW
THE EARTH BELONGS TO ME TOO?
I MAY BE ATTRACTIVE TO YOUR EYES
BUT SHOULDN'T I NEED MY FEATHERS
TO ATTRACT MY MATE?
DID I EVER ENTER YOUR GARDEN, KITCHEN...
EVEN I NEVER VENTURE ON THE BANKS OF THE SEA
BUT WHY DO YOU REACH MY HOMES
AND CATCH MY SCHOOL?
EARTH IS FOR EVERYONE.
