Get Up Off Our Knees |
| Famines will be famines, banquets will be banquets |
| Some spend winter in a palace, some spend it in blankets |
| Dont wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away |
| Dont shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today |
| Time to end the praying |
| Listen what theyre saying |
| Get up off your knees |
| You can wag your finger till your fingers sore |
| Shake your head till it shakes no more |
| Paupers will be paupers, bankers will be bankers |
| Some own pennies in a jar, some own oil tankers |
| What may sound like tomorrow could be ours today |
| Theres no more need for sorrow if we get off our knees to pray |
| Time to end the praying |
| Listen what theyre saying |
| Get up off your knees |
| You can wag your finger till your fingers sore |
| Shake your head till it shakes no more |
| Countries will be countries, borders will be borders |
| Some have lost their folks at war, some have give orders |
| Dont wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away |
| Dont shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today |
| Time to end the praying |
| Listen what theyre saying |
