Neil Young – Shut It Down lyrics

Have to shut the whole system down
Have to shut the whole system down
People tryin' to save this earth
From an ugly death
Have to shut the whole system down
People tryin' to live, working
In a world of meat factories

Have to shut the whole system down
All around the planet
There's a blindness that just can't see
Have to shut the whole system down
They're all wearing climate change
As cool as they can be

Have to shut the whole system down
Shut it down, shut it down
Shut it down, shut it down

Have to shut the whole system down
That's the only way we can all be free
Have to shut the whole system down
Start again and build it for eternity

Have to shut the whole system down
What about the animals?
What about the birds and bees?
Have to shut the whole system down
What about the bookshelves?
What about the history?

Have to shut the whole system down
Shut it down, shut it down
Shut it down, shut it down

Shut it down, shut it down
Shut it down, shut it down

Have to shut the whole system down
When I look at the future
I see hope for you and me
Have to shut the whole system down
Working, working for eternity
Work it now

Have to shut the whole system down
When I look at the future
I see hope for you and me
Have to shut the whole system down
Working for eternity

Gonna shut the whole system down
Got to shut the whole system down
Got to shut the whole system down
