作词 : Stanley Bryan Robinson/Darnley Hodge 作曲 : Marcus D. Marino “When people once are in the wrong Each line they add is much too long Who fastest walks, but walks astray Is only furthest from his way” - Mathew Prior New drama everyday, let me find out Will it be death by flood or by drought Shed a tear for the world before it dies out And we all really have somethin' to cry about The ride out The world weeps cause we'd rather be at war Than provide health benefits to the poor The economy falls, anarchy soars And the crisis is elevated for the mis-educated Some of our schools are developing fools With the help of the media turned into tools That are misused, abused and left for dead Like my nervous youth that can't even get some bread In places like India, Sudan and Niger Greed has turned honest men into liars That profit off destruction and desperation Yet somehow, can't clean up the debt we're facin' Is it because most of the wealth's owned by a few That don't give a damn if they lead us all into doom Getting hotter everyday, planet's starting to melt Maybe she weeps because we're all headed for hell New drama everyday, let me find out Will it be death by flood or by drought Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out And we all really have somethin' to cry about The ride out All we need's a change for the better (What you want) And of course a change in the weather (What you need) All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want) And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed) They say the aim's to be faithfully married with kids But face it son, we know what the reality is The average kid don't even know his daddy is his And these days, they seem to see more gay than straight marriages The world weeps, cause more stress can only lead to more tears They let the television news manipulate you through fear They lock you up for ****, so they can inundate you with beer While the North Pole is meltin' in the next ten years As long as couples keep cheating Governments keep sleeping There will always be a reason why the world keeps weeping Crooked cops keep beating while policing Abusing while they cruising The world weeps because of confusion Mother Earth's soft skin becoming covered with contusions From rainforest killing machines, burning and bruising From the cradle to the grave we forget what she gave So she weeps cause we treat her and beat her, like a slave New drama everyday, let me find out Will it be death by flood or by drought Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out And we all really have somethin' to cry about The ride out All we need's a change for the better (What you want) And of course a change in the weather (What you need) All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want) And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed) We need a change for the better like a change in bad weather Change your mind so we can change our focus, get it together Change the way we think, speak, act and feel The world weeps cause my peeps still actin' ill We got swine flu, ghetto liquor stores with the drive-through Crime through the roof and the ceiling, need I remind you? The politicians either reject you, or neglect you While Hurricane Katrina proves the punks don't protect you Maybe they don't protect you, cause they don't respect you So you lash out when they least expect you Why mother, why must the vast majority Suffer due to mistakes by a minority Others who am I question your authority My brothers should have known to treat you like royalty But they chose otherwise and now another dies And it's no wonder why, I'm watching my mother cry New drama everyday, let me find out Will it be death by flood or by drought Shed a tear for the world 'fore it dies out And we all really have somethin' to cry about The ride out All we need's a change for the better (What you want) And of course a change in the weather (What you need) All we need's a change for the better (It's what you want) And of course a change in the weather (Yes Indeed)
