Hey look in the air There's smoke fillin' everywhere And hey, look on the ground There's blood spilling all around chorus: We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing to the ground We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing down Hey look at the green, green tree It ain't quite as green green as it used to be And hey, look at the cool clear water It ain't quite as cool and clear As it ought to be, and chorus: We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing to the ground We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing down Hey look at the people Sometimes we forget That we're just people And we're falling head over heels 'Cause all of us forget quite how to feel We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing to the ground We live in the garden of eden, yeah Don't know why we want to tear The whole thing down
