CHORUS:

Too many people having too many babies

Got to love them babies but there's

Too many peopple having too many babies

Got to love them babies but it's out of control



Adam and Eve time on their hands

Hyperactive glands room to expand

Once they began begatting they begatted to excess

Eschewing tactics prophylactic now we're in a mess



Because there's

CHORUS



When Columbus sailed the ocean we were 400 million

Industrial revolution still under a billion

The Great Depression hit 2.1 billion

Now we're pushing the millennium 6 billion and counting



Civil wars rumbling refugees stumbling

Forests falling deserts creeping

Traffic crawling resiources depleting

Shoppers shopping for pleasures fleeting



When there's

CHORUS



Once I lived in the city it was too big and noisy

So I moved to the country to stop and smell the rosies

All my city friends joined me and put up nice new housies

Now it's too big and noisy think I'll move to the country



Some say no no no no it's not the population

It's consumption pollution unequal distribution

I say that's so but it's a simple equation

Pepulation times pollution equals no solution



When there's

CHORUS



If you are a child welcome to the world

This blue-green earth is your gift by birth

May you rock to its rhythms may you sing its anthems

And if you have babies please stop at two



Because there's

CHORUS



CHORUS (... please stop at two
