Read the news in the Times today... said the world is goin' round (world is goin' round)
I don't care what somebody says, somebody always puts 'em down (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 dreamin' in the middle of the ni-i-i-i-ight?
Too much talk, and not enough action
Do you know anybody gettin' good satisfaction?
Everbody wonders 'bout the crowd 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 (Won't be very long)
Someone soon will be in your place and it won't be very wrong (won't be very wrong)
Red or yellow, black or white..... (to chorus)
Bridge:
Now's our chance to change the world,
Change the world with love, with love...
(Chorus repeats)
I don't care what somebody says, somebody always puts 'em down (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 dreamin' in the middle of the ni-i-i-i-ight?
Too much talk, and not enough action
Do you know anybody gettin' good satisfaction?
Everbody wonders 'bout the crowd 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 (Won't be very long)
Someone soon will be in your place and it won't be very wrong (won't be very wrong)
Red or yellow, black or white..... (to chorus)
Bridge:
Now's our chance to change the world,
Change the world with love, with love...
(Chorus repeats)
