No World Order |
Let me tell you 'bout the new world order |
Not the kind to make you run for the border |
It’s a new religion wrapped in a revolution |
With a proven solution for your mental pollution |
Don’t let no one tell you that god ain’t got a sense of humor |
Someone said he’s pissed off, but that was just a rumor |
I know he’s laughin’when the preacher starts to scream about |
How trippin’is evil, and sex is unclean |
Cars and gold bars and chains and diamond rings |
These are the symbols, we want the real things |
Peace in the soul and a natural insight |
Things that please the mind and make the body feel right |
Nature wants your life to go on long and on strong |
To have children and show them where you went wrong |
So if your life style leads you into hell or into prison |
Wake up and listen, this is what you’re missing |
Free will, we can’t seem to get our fill |
We are beggers, we are choosers drunk on a lack of power |
I believe in understanding, I’ve got to know where we’re landing |
I’m takin’my survey now, hands up if you’re with me Do you want different choices? |
Can’t hear the quiet voices |
Got to dim all the lights, turn down the volume |
Put on a little more forgiveness, who’s gonna be my witness? |
If we must endure this trial, someone is bound to touch us Do you want more sex, more comforting |
A little more foreplay and afterglow, let my people go Everybody wants peace on the earth, children sheltering |
Calling every man, every woman |
We’re gonna take control of our own bodies |
Peace breaks out in the battle of the sexes |
We start to learn what the other one expects is We stay away from what the other one rejects is And have respect for individual perspectives |
We’re gonna break out of this cycle of dependency |
And liberate each other from a hopeless life of drudgery |
And face up to the truth as we dispel all of this secrecy |
And simplify the situation when we learn to speak plainly |
We’re gonna take control of the machinery |
Bad little actors that chew up the scenery |
Job number one is gonna be findin’a way |
That we can rave all night and meditate all day |
Mankind’s strugglin’hard to see the light |
To hear the voice of the spirit in the night |
To lay down his heavy burden and pick up his soul power |
And build a heaven on earth hour by hour by hour |
Child protection, more careful mate selection |
Everyone wants to be wanted by a natural father and mother |
Lookin’for a sense of wonder, don’t let your faith go under |
This is a beautiful world, if we could only give up fighting |
The answer is surrender, every race, every gender |
Beat our swords into plowshares on the anvil of a pure heart |
We gotta have honest answers and the courage to take our chances |
Opporunity’s knockin’loud, give me your attention |
