King for a Day
Young Lyrics

It's a new day for the planet
The world has a fresh start, a new opportunity to create something better than before.

It's a new day for the sun
The sun has risen, signifying a new beginning, fresh ideas, and a positive outlook.

To shine down on what we're doin'
The sun illuminates the actions of humans, which should be positive and progressive for the planet.

It's a new day for love
This marks a new chapter for care, compassion, and empathy towards the planet and living beings.

It's a bad day to do nothin'
Doing nothing is not an acceptable option, as there is a pressing need to help those who lack support from power-hungry individuals.

With so many people needin' our help
A large number of people require support from the general public, demanding immediate attention to their woes.

To keep their lands away from the greedy
The objective is to curb the greed of those who exploit natural resources, including people's lands, for their selfish gain.

Who only plunder for themselves
Self-serving individuals never seem to worry about the impact of their actions because they concentrate only on personal gain.

All the people in the whole wide world
Every living creature on planet earth draws equal attention and should be protected and provided for.

Nobody matters but you and me
Nobody else but you and the singer of the song seem to care enough to take action to preserve the planet.

When it comes to protecting our precious gift
The singer and the listener share the responsibility of safeguarding the planet, marked as humanity's precious gift.

(It's a new day) it's the big scene from the movies
This line refers to a transition where the singer shifts the focus from real-life scenarios to a cinematic experience.

(It's a big scene) where the gunslinger rides away
This refers to a typical western movie where the hero gallops away into the sunset, with the viewer unsure if the hero's actions are responsible for any change or improvement.

(It's a big scene) outside a town past the needy
The scene takes place in the outskirts of a town, which reflects a lack of support from society towards the marginalized communities.

(It's a big scene) and the rows of soldiers' graves
The scene takes place in a graveyard for soldiers, reflecting on the aftermath of wars, with human lives lost and no substantial achievement.

(It's a new day) they fought the wars we thought we needed
The line means that the past generations thought that war was essential, and as a result, soldiers had to fight the battles.

(It's a new day) they never asked us for a thing
Soldiers never demanded anything in return for their service, and instead, they lived in difficult situations or lost their lives for the country's sake.

(It's a new day) and we believed in what we were doin'
The past generation had faith in their actions, believed in the wars, and had the conviction that they were doing something worthwhile.

(It's a new day) while the earth is givin' way
This line shows the world is taking significant hits from the effects of war, and the natural environment is breaking down as a consequence.

Of all the feelings in the whole wide world
All the emotions and feelings around the globe point to a single objective- to protect the planet.

I can't begin to do or say
The singer is overwhelmed with emotions and cannot put into words the force driving them to care for the planet.

Anything but protect our precious gift
The only option is to protect the planet that we are called to take care of.

It's a new day for the planet
The world has a new beginning, marked by positive actions towards the environment.

It's a new day for love
Love calls for people to embrace the planet, care for it and preserve its beauty.

So shine down on what we're doin'
The plea is for the brighter side of the human nature to play its part in protecting the planet.

It's a new day for love
The message remains that a new day is a sign of fresh possibilities and hope for humanity.
