For What It’s Worth

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]
