This song is available on Birdsong and the Eco-Wonder's album Everything Is Connected.
Spoken:
Connected, Connected, Everything’s Connected (2x)
Verse 1:
Everything is connected. Grandma calls it the web of life.
The moon helps the ocean rise and fall. The sun gives the whole world light.
And the sun and the moon help the plants to grow.
And the plants are food for young and old. Oh...
CHORUS:
Everything is connected.
It seems that life’s just made that way.
The sun shines, the rain falls.
Helps the trees and the flowers grow.
The moon, the sea, the earth and sky.
The animals, plants and you and I.
We are all connected in this great big web of life.
Spoken: Connected, Connected, Everything’s Connected (repeat)
Verse 2:
Everything is connected. The trees, the birds, you and me.
Trees make oxygen for us to breathe and seeds for the birds to eat.
And the birds fly around, drop seeds on the ground
And seeds grow into trees that help us breathe. Oh...
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Well the food that I eat is connected to the seeds
That were planted by the farmers in the earth beneath our feet.
And with the rain and the sun’s energy,
And an awful lot of help from the pollinating bees,
The seeds grow into plants that produce
The vegetables and fruit that are now my food.
So the farmers and I,
The earth and sky,
The seeds and the bees
And the food we eat are:
Spoken: Connected, Connected, Everything’s Connected (2x)
Verse 4:
Everything is connected. I think about this a lot.
I see it all around when I play outside and I feel it in my heart.
And I know it for sure when I’m singing a song,
And the birds begin to sing along. Oh …
CHORUS
