Raise the Alarm
Bend and roll with the breeze
We cherry pick all our memories
And wrap them up all neat and tidy
So we can make it through the day
The chaos, the commotion
We all live in today
And I don't understand
Why people die for other people's greed
It's all right there for us to see
How much do we really need?
For our society
If we saw the true cost of all we have
We live upon the shoulders
Of those who wish they had
Somewhere safe at night to sleep
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
Let's take stock of all we have
The gizmo's and the gadgets
The clothes upon our backs
And the food we buy to eat
Well all of it is made up from the whole
We are all one people and
We've only got one home
And that's why it's hard to see
Us fight amongst ourselves for things to own
None of it goes with you when you sing your final song
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
We cherry pick all our memories
And wrap them up all neat and tidy
So we can make it through the day
The chaos, the commotion
We all live in today
And I don't understand
Why people die for other people's greed
It's all right there for us to see
How much do we really need?
For our society
If we saw the true cost of all we have
We live upon the shoulders
Of those who wish they had
Somewhere safe at night to sleep
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
Let's take stock of all we have
The gizmo's and the gadgets
The clothes upon our backs
And the food we buy to eat
Well all of it is made up from the whole
We are all one people and
We've only got one home
And that's why it's hard to see
Us fight amongst ourselves for things to own
None of it goes with you when you sing your final song
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
So raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me what's wrong
Raise the alarm
Every time a screen is on
Showing me whats wrong
Raise the alarm
Tonight
Well it's all gonna be alright
