Where Have All the Eagles Gone

Lyrics

There where days down in Africa where eagles used to fly;
 Lazy days down in Africa, when vultures circled up on high
 And balmy night down in Africa when screech owls used to cry.
 times of plenty in Africa when there were watchers in the sky.
 Times have changed now in Africa, now that the eagles have all gone.
 Where are all the vultures over Africa and people laughing in the sun?
 And owls are silent in Africa nights are hushed and oh so long,
 There are no watchers over Africa and people cry "What have we done?"
 Where have all the eagles gone? "You can hear the people crying:
 Where have all the eagles gone, is it because of us they're dying?"
 Like sailors of the trade winds that have been lost at sea
 Or missing aviators, disappeared in mystery
 Are you dying with your secrets in the jet streams all alone?
 Are you in the wastes of Asia or are you coming home
 Are you coming home?
 Where have all the eagles gone? "You can hear the people crying:
 Where have all the eagles gone, is it because of us they're dying?"
 Where have all the eagles gone? "You can hear the people crying:
 Where have all the eagles gone, is it because of us they're dying?"
