If the jungle was your playground and the forest was your home
And the meadows and the mountains were where you loved to roam,
If you woke up in the morning and all of this were gone,
How would you feel?
If your friends were all around you and your neighbours were there too
Every member of your family was living close to you
If you woke up in the morning all alone and in a zoo,
How would you feel?
Danger. Danger. Animals in danger.
From the big to the small.
And we stand or fall together.
‘Cause this world needs us all.
This world is like a jigsaw so no pieces must be lost.
When a species is no longer every creature pays the cost.
There are birds and bees and bison,
Pigs and pandas we may never see again.
Danger. Danger. Animals in danger.
From the big to the small.
And we stand or fall together.
‘Cause this world needs us all.
We all need a place to live. We all need a place to grow.
We need food and air and water to survive.
So we can walk and swim and fly on the land, in sea and sky
And stay alive.
Danger. Danger. Animals in danger.
From the big to the small.
And we stand or fall together.
‘Cause this world needs us all.
Danger. Danger. Animals in danger.
From the big to the small.
And we stand or fall together.
‘Cause this world needs us all.
