歌词

[00:00.49] “When people once are in the wrong
[00:03.09] Each line they add is much too long
[00:05.68] Who fastest walks, but walks astray
[00:08.20] Is only furthest from his way”
[00:10.64] - Mathew Prior
[00:12.16] New drama everyday, let me find out
[00:14.66] Will it be death by flood or by drought
[00:17.11] Shed a tear for the world before it dies out
[00:19.55] And we all really have somethin' to cry about
[00:22.13] The ride out
[00:32.41] The world weeps cause we'd rather be at war
[00:34.81] Than provide health benefits to the poor
[00:37.24] The economy falls, anarchy soars
[00:39.89] And the crisis is elevated for the mis-educated
[00:42.49] Some of our schools are developing fools
[00:44.64] With the help of the media turned into tools
[00:47.12] That are misused, abused and left for dead
[00:49.57] Like my nervous youth that can't even get some bread
[00:52.16] In places like India, Sudan and Niger
[00:54.80] Greed has turned honest men into liars
[00:57.10] That profit off destruction and desperation
[00:59.80] Yet somehow, can't clean up the debt we're facin'
[01:02.13] Is it because most of the wealth's owned by a few
[01:04.53] That don't give a damn if they lead us all into doom
[01:06.92] Getting hotter everyday, planet's starting to melt
[01:09.50] Maybe she weeps because we're all headed for hell
[01:12.15] New drama everyday, let me find out
[01:14.49] Will it be death by flood or by drought
[01:17.04] Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out
[01:19.49] And we all really have somethin' to cry about
[01:22.13] The ride out
[01:23.09] All we need's a change for the better (What you want)
[01:25.69] And of course a change in the weather (What you need)
[01:28.08] All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want)
[01:30.68] And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed)
[01:32.22] They say the aim's to be faithfully married with kids
[01:34.66] But face it son, we know what the reality is
[01:37.11] The average kid don't even know his daddy is his
[01:39.65] And these days, they seem to see more gay than straight marriages
[01:42.19] The world weeps, cause more stress can only lead to more tears
[01:44.59] They let the television news manipulate you through fear
[01:46.98] They lock you up for weed, so they can inundate you with beer
[01:49.48] While the North Pole is meltin' in the next ten years
[01:51.98] As long as couples keep cheating
[01:53.22] Governments keep sleeping
[01:54.71] There will always be a reason why the world keeps weeping
[01:57.01] Crooked cops keep beating while policing
[01:59.06] Abusing while they cruising
[02:00.80] The world weeps because of confusion
[02:02.29] Mother Earth's soft skin becoming covered with contusions
[02:04.79] From rainforest killing machines, burning and bruising
[02:07.34] From the cradle to the grave we forget what she gave
[02:09.59] So she weeps cause we treat her and beat her, like a slave
[02:12.23] New drama everyday, let me find out
[02:14.56] Will it be death by flood or by drought
[02:17.01] Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out
[02:19.51] And we all really have somethin' to cry about
[02:22.20] The ride out
[02:23.00] All we need's a change for the better (What you want)
[02:25.50] And of course a change in the weather (What you need)
[02:28.14] All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want)
[02:30.69] And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed)
[02:32.21] We need a change for the better like a change in bad weather
[02:34.60] Change your mind so we can change our focus, get it together
[02:37.33] Change the way we think, speak, act and feel
[02:39.62] The world weeps cause my peeps still actin' ill
[02:42.12] We got swine flu, ghetto liquor stores with the drive-through
[02:44.90] Crime through the roof and the ceiling, need I remind you?
[02:47.31] The politicians either reject you, or neglect you
[02:49.98] While Hurricane Katrina proves the punks don't protect you
[02:52.10] Maybe they don't protect you, cause they don't respect you
[02:55.05] So you lash out when they least expect you
[02:57.16] Why mother, why must the vast majority
[02:59.88] Suffer due to mistakes by a minority
[03:02.38] Others who am I question your authority
[03:04.93] My brothers should have known to treat you like royalty
[03:07.31] But they chose otherwise and now another dies
[03:09.96] And it's no wonder why, I'm watching my mother cry
[03:12.14] New drama everyday, let me find out
[03:14.76] Will it be death by flood or by drought
[03:17.10] Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out
[03:19.54] And we all really have somethin' to cry about
[03:22.24] The ride out
[03:23.09] All we need's a change for the better (What you want)
[03:25.63] And of course a change in the weather (What you need)
[03:28.08] All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want)
[03:30.58] And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed)
