"The World Needs Help" is Shaun Jansen's winning entry for the National Environment Agency's Eco Music Challenge 2012, and the theme song of Clean & Green Singapore 2013. It is an eco call-to-action that rallies us to reflect on the lives we lead on our shared planet, the impact we have on the environment, and how we each can play our part to do something green for the world we live in. Because ultimately, the world could do with a little help. Each and every one of us is able to lend a helping hand, and Every Action Counts.
Lyrics:
The World Needs Help
Verse
The sun comes up, it looks like it's okay
But the rain will come another day
'Cause when you look way beyond tomorrow's door
You'll see that it's not pretty anymore
Pre-chorus
What we're doing with our cars and its smoke,
And it's spoiling the air and it's not okay
We're taking everything, never sparing a thought
For the children of tomorrow's day
But today, we got to make a change
Chorus
The world needs help and she's calling for you
Today's okay but tomorrow won't do
If we stand right here, keep making her pay
Say forget it, hey lady come another day
The world cries out and she bleeds from inside
It's our own minds that we should fight
If we take it slow, just keeping it clean
We'll wipe all the wasteful excessive living today
The world needs help and it's up to you and me
To make a change
