Lyrics Fragile World - Aaron Neville

Fragile World

Fragile world
Everyone’s in the path
So no one’s safe from its mighty wrath
Tornadoes, earthquakes, and hurricanes
Forest fires, mudslides, torrential rain
Heatwaves, floods and blizzards
Melting the polar ice
And if all that’s not bad enough
Humans just won’t play nice
There’s so much beyond our control
With the things we do
We surely take toll
Like people committing suicide
Just to take unsuspecting innocent lives
Likes meteors falling from the skies
Politicians telling lies
Like Marvin said, ‘Oil spilled all over our oceans and our seas'
I agree with him by saying ‘Mercy, Mercy Me'
And wanting to know ‘What's Going On?'
I’d like to know where the love has gone
All over these United divided States
There’s still so much fear and so much hate
Will we ever get it together, on this Earth?
We’re all sisters and brothers
Like Marvin said, ‘We better live together as brothers and sisters or die
together as fools'
Stop filling our hearts with hatred and breaking all the rules
Since we’re the higher-ups on the animal chain
But sometimes we just don’t use our brains
At least animals kill for food, man kills in his neighborhood
Nuclear threats all over the land
Man wants to annihilate other man
Tears for Fears said, ‘Everybody wants to rule the world'
But it belongs to every woman, man, boy and girl
See, we all have our right to share this land
Don’t just belong to one man
I don’t have all the answers;
I don’t think anybody does
If there was a cure for cancer and a whole lot more love
I’ll say a prayer before I go to sleep
And ask God for all our souls to keep
A fragile, fragile world, is all we got, y’all
I just wanna say peace on Earth and goodwill to everything and everybody from
this one and only planet
Make it right
