about

Burning rain forests, economic systems collapsing, devastated ecosystems and a pandemic that destroys the livelihood of so many. We are living in times of uncertainty in which the once believed stability begins to crumble.

Our song "Little Planet Earth" is meant to be a warning shot across the
bows to every single one of us. Do we really want to continue like this? Take responsibility instead of pointing at others. We're all part of the shit that's happening but we can also be part of the solution to a better future - for all of us. Stand up for nature, animals and humans - be compassionate, not egoistic. Change starts with you and me, a better world is possible.

lyrics

I don't say the truth
I lie straight to you

Please don't take it amiss
When I keep doin' all that shit
Someone told me life gets simpler if
You act like a bitch

And I'm learning bit by bit
Let's delete words like conscience from the list
And replace them by greed and avarice

And I'm learning bit by bit
And I'm learning bit by bit by bit
And I'm learning bit by bit
And I'm learning bit by bit by bit

Little planet earth it must be hard for you
Hosting all these jerks and no one helps you through

I will take down all the mirrors
Nothing left to consider
I am onto a winner
Shameless, painless, brainless

You've got what it takes to be a jerk
Congrats your word is even heard
Is that how it works on little planet earth?

(And I'm learning bit by bit)
I don't say the truth
(And I'm learning bit by bit by bit)
I lie straight to you
(And I'm learning bit by bit)
Don't take it amiss when I keep doin' all that shit
(And I'm learning bit by bit by bit)
Someone told me life gets simpler
If I act like a bitch
(And I'm learning bit by bit)
And I'm learning bit by bit
(And I'm learning bit by bit)
Let's delete words like conscience from the list
And replace them by greed and avarice
(And I'm learning bit by bit)
Take down all the mirrors
Nothing left to consider
(And I'm learning bit by bit)
Shameless
Painless
Brainless

Little planet earth it must be hard for you
Hosting all these jerks and no one helps you through
Little planet earth it must be hard for you
Hosting all these jerks and no one helps you through
Little planet earth it must be hard for you
Hosting all these jerks and no one helps you through
Little planet earth it must be hard for you
Hosting all these jerks and no one helps you through
Little little little planet earth
