Let us not allow another dream to turn sour [00:00:09]
Dismissed by cynics as the son of flower power [00:00:12]
We don't know how and we don't know why [00:00:14]
But we can still retain love in our mind's eye [00:00:16]
And I know bitterness is never a solution [00:00:19]
Cos deep in my soul I had a silent revolution [00:00:21]
As a means to an end I may choose wealth [00:00:24]
But love is truly an end in itself [00:00:26]
And I see George hand in hand with the dragon [00:00:29]
Loading contraband upon the same band wagon [00:00:31]
Pinball machines have a sign say tilt [00:00:34]
But in life it's difficult establishing guilt [00:00:36]
So it won't be me to cast the first stone [00:00:38]
Cos I've got far too many hang ups of my own [00:00:41]
And further more if the truth be known [00:00:44]
I want mercy when my cover gets blown [00:00:46]
There's something happening here [00:00:49]
What it is ain't exactly clear [00:00:53]
There's a man with a gun over there [00:00:58]
Telling me I've got to beware [00:01:02]
I think it's time we stop [00:01:07]
Children what's that sound [00:01:09]
Everbody look what's going down [00:01:11]
And it sure is quiet on the western front [00:01:22]
A high high high priced media stunt [00:01:24]
The tabloid headlines they keep me feeling happy [00:01:25]
Cos they're feeding me a slogan [00:01:27]
That's punchy and snappy [00:01:29]
And when I look inside I never get tense [00:01:31]
Cos it tells me what I want to hear [00:01:33]
Bout the world events [00:01:34]
The just war is the latest trend [00:01:35]
But let this good thing come to an end [00:01:37]
And tell me a little more about your new world order [00:01:39]
Does this mean your gonna open up your border [00:01:41]
Open up your heart open up your mind [00:01:43]
Eradicate the poverty you left behind [00:01:45]
Open up your job to the last Mohican [00:01:47]
Open up the hospital you closed last week [00:01:48]
And then if so you can open up your [00:01:50]
Stock exchange in Moscow [00:01:51]
Now there are 5 billion people plus upon this planet [00:01:53]
The place cannot be totally without love can it [00:01:55]
The very first time in my life I stood still for a second [00:01:57]
I found more pain than I previously reckoned [00:02:01]
And it hurt and it hurt and it hurt like pain does [00:02:06]
And I discovered that's OK because [00:02:12]
There was a very good reason for the pain to be there [00:02:14]
Pain is a way of reminding us we care [00:02:21]
The first time my soul came into focus [00:02:23]
And my soul said let the pain provoke us [00:02:26]
And I felt safe and I felt warm inside [00:02:28]
And I felt the waves of pain subside [00:02:30]
And I saw then what I'd always been seeking [00:02:44]
The light of love shining out like a beacon [00:02:47]
And I stopped listened looked around [00:02:50]
And now I'm dancing to a whole new sound [00:02:52]
I think it's time we stop [00:02:55]
Hold your fire put down your weapon [00:02:56]
You'll never get to heaven with an AK47[00:02:58]
