There's only so much oil in the ground
Sooner or later there won't be much around
Tell that to your kids while you driving downtown
That there's only so much oil in the ground
Can't cut loose without that juice
Can't cut loose without that juice
If we keep on like we doing things for sure
Will not be cool - It's a fact
We just ain't got suffiecient fuel
Cause there's only so much oil in the ground
Sooner or later there won't be none around
Alternate sources of power must be found
Cause there's only so much oil in the ground
There's only so much oil in the earth
It's a fact of life - for what it's worth
Something every little girl and boy should know since birth
That there's only so much oil in the ground
There's no excuse for our abuse
No excuse for our abuse
We just assume that what we use
Will not exceed the oil supply
But soon enough the world will watch the wells run dry
Cause there's only so much oil in the ground
Sooner or later there won't be none around
You can tell that to your children
While you're drivin' round downtown
That only so much oil in the ground
And only so much oil in the earth
Sooner than you think the's gonna be a haavy duty dirth
Then there won't be too much time for no merriment or mirth
'Cause there's only so much oil in the earth
Can't cut loose without that juice
Can't cut loose without that juice
If we keep on like we doing things for sure
Will not be cool - It's a fact
We just ain't got suffiecient fuel
