Wake up everybody

Take a good look around

There's far too many reasons

For all the troubles goin' down.

Jesus is watchin',

And the devil is alive.

Buddha is cryin',

And Allah is mystified.

Brothers killin' brothers,

And our children in the streets.

We gotta change the times

We gotta change the times.



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in.

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again.



Down on every corner

We got children sellin' dope.

Who's gonna send a message

And try to give 'em hope.

Jesus is watchin',

And the devil is alive.

Buddha is cryin',

And Allah is mystified.

Brothers killin' brothers,

And our children in the streets.

We gotta change the times

We gotta change the times.



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in.

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again.

Oh what a shame when they try to pretend.

All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again.



Can't buy love with a paycheck,

It means nothin' to a boy and girl.

You need universal love of all mankind

To change what's wrong with the world.



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in.

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again.

Oh what a shame when they try to pretend.

All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again.
