Read the news in the Times today,
It seems the world is going "˜round,
I don't care what somebody says,
Somebody always puts "˜em down.
Red or yellow, black or white,
Are you left-handed or are you right?
When you open your eyes can you see the light?
Do you wake up screaming in the middle of the night?
Too much talk and not enough action,
Do you know anybody getting satisfaction?
Everybody wonders "˜bout the crowds' reaction,
And the world gets better by a very small fraction.
Turn around "˜til you see a face,
And it won't be very long,
Someone soon will be in your place,
And it won't be very wrong.
Now's our chance to change the world,
Change the world with love, with love"¦
Too much talk and not enough action,
Do you know anybody getting satisfaction?
Everybody wonders "˜bout the crowds' reaction,
And the world gets better by a very small fraction"¦
