Lyrics and Music by Axel Ehnström Финляндия / Евровидение 2011
Peter is smart,
He knows each European country by heart.
He likes to sit under an apple tree on his yard
And wait for an apple to fall.
When Peter is nine,
His teacher tells him that this planet is dying,
That someone needs to put an end to it all and so
When Peter comes home,
He tells his mom:
Chorus:
I’m going out in the world
To save our planet
And I ain’t coming back
Until she’s saved.
I’ll walk my way to see
The King and parliament.
If they don’t help,
I’ll do it by myself.
I don’t wanna be…
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
Peter is young,
He tries to talk but no one listens to him,
Everybody’s busy living and dying, not thinking
About what they’re doing.
But look at the boy who…
Chorus:
Went out in the world
To save our planet
And he ain’t coming back
Until she’s saved.
He walked his way to see
The King and parliament,
But they all turned
Their heads and walked away.
Singing:
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
And now I’m going out in the world
To save our planet
And I ain’t coming back
Until she’s saved.
I’m walking in the footsteps
That young Peter made
And everybody
Is welcome to join.
And sing with me…
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
Da da dam, da da dam,
Da da da da, da da da, da dam.
