There's a bay up in Alaska oh so cold and clear
A home for creatures great and small
Till the pipeline appeared
To bring us fuel to heat our homes

And gas for us to drive
Now the sea is black with oil
And all the fish have died
So whos to tell us why?

There's a forest in Brazil sheltered by the rain
Where the tall trees make the air we breathe
Till the cattle barons came
They clearеd the land for grazing
Fifty thousand trees a day now the Amazon's on fire
And that's progrеss they say
But what a price to pay

Who's minding the garden?
Who's holding the seed?
Are they planning for tomorrow
Or just harvesting their greed?

There's a line in the Bible
Says we'll reap just what we sow
But who who'll mind the garden
When the garden won't grow?
Who's minding, who's mind, who's mind the garden?
Who's minding, who's minding?
 
 
There's children in the city
Never seen a butterfly
We've poisoned the wildflowers and the water supply
There's hot zones, dead zones, depleting ozone
Climate change is real
When it's going to take a miracle for mother earth to heal
How's a child supposed to feel?

Who's minding the garden?
Who's holding the seed?
Are they planning for tomorrow
Or just harvesting their dreams?

There's a line in the Bible
Says we'll reap just what we sow
But who will mind the garden--
When the garden won't grow?
