Bruce Hornsby, The Range - Look Out Any Window

Thank you, my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the music video of Bruce Hornsby, The Range performing "Look Out Any Window"
Both the Hollies and Bruce Hornsby had a song with this title.
Song review: "While other songs from 1988’s Scenes from the Southside are described as short stories set in the South, “Look Out Any Window” is more like a critical essay about the devastating effects industrial greed has on the environment. The narrator denounces this pollution and waste while simultaneously calling attention to the inequality between the “man working in the fields” seeing the effects of air pollution and acid rain on his crop and the “men too busy getting rich to care” that their factories and coal plants are choking up the air and harming the land.
The song peaked at number 35 on the Billboard music charts. While it failed to achieve the commercial success of “The Way It Is,” the song is true to Hornsby’s prosaic songwriting approach and showcases a keen sense of story evident in his other music with The Range.
Ultimately the song is a simple plea to both those in authority and the average man or woman of the time: to pay attention to the devastation and exploitation of our climate and your fellow human beings, to challenge those who seek to abuse the planet for profit, and to make caring for our world a priority."

"Look Out Any Window" written by Bruce Hornsby and Jonathan Hornsby
Lyrics
"There's a man working in a field
Sees the rain and it's burning
He's saying this can't be real
As he sees the color
Of the fields turning

Far away, the men too busy
Getting rich to care
Close their eyes and
Let it all out into the air
Hoping nobody else would care

Look out any window
Look out any open door
Look out any window
To see what's going on
In the air around you

There's a man working on a boat
Pulling lines from the water
Just trying to stay afloat, ohh
Filling the nets is getting harder

Far away, they bend
The rules so secretly
Close their eyes and
Let it all out into the sea
Hoping nobody else would see

Look out any window
Look out any open door
Look out any window
To see what's going on
In the air around you

Far away, too many leaders
Let them get their way
Close their eyes and
Let it all out into the bay
Say they'll clear it up another day

Look out any window
Look out any open door
Look out any window
To see that's going on
In the air around you

(Look out)
Look out for the big boys
Telling you everything
They're gonna do

(Look out)
Look out for the fat cat builder man
Turning this into a waste land

(Look out)
Look out for the back room boys
That say the smoke is gonna blow away

(Look out)
Look out for the men
Who say it's okay sitting
In a building far away"
