lyrics

Well I grew up a prince just like that Buddha did
but I fell out the garden when I was just a kid.
Years later, down the line, no I didn’t die.
Poor people round the world just trying to get by.

Still I wonder…

Why is it so crazy to say:

“No child should ever know hunger
be left out neath the rain and thunder”

They say Jesus healed the sick and he loved the poor
but they drag out his name when they wanna beat the drums of war.
There’s people in a foreign land- wanna kill us, they say,
but my first terrorist was Timothy McVeigh.

Still I wonder…

Why is it so crazy to say:

“It’s so easy to hide behind that banner of fear
-a lot harder to sit down and look in the ugly mirror”

Islam’s a religion of peace; I know it’s true.
For a quarter of the world, that’s what get’s ‘em through.
You take an eye for an eye for an eye and the world’s blind
but the people at the top, I really don’t think they mind.

Still I wonder…

Why is it so crazy to say:

“Could there be something akin to universal love
that manifests itself as a great big god above?”

“Could there be something akin to universal love
that manifests itself as a great big god above?”

Still I wonder…

Why is it so crazy to say:

“Could there be something akin to universal love
that manifests itself as a great big god above?”

“Could there be something akin to universal love
that manifests itself as a great big god above?”
