He hoped it would be perfect
We'd overcome obsession
With greed and growth and ownership
He thought it could be heaven
He dreamed of a utopia
A fair and equal future
The realists has had their chance
It's time now for the dreamer
And all the honest people sayâ¦
We're running out of water
They take it and they sell it even in a drought
This is the news from nowhere
We know we're running out
What will happen when people can't afford the water?
Just like oilâ¦
He hoped it would be perfect
We'd overcome obsessions
With greed and growth and ownership
He thought it could be heaven
And all the honest people sayâ¦
Nestle don't own the water
Like they don't own the air
This is the news from nowhere
This future is unequal, this future's unfair
What will happen when people can't afford the water?
