Dialogue Part 1 and 2 (feat. Robert Randolph) [Live]
Whoo, whoo-whoo
Are you optimistic 'bout the way things are going?
No, I never ever think of it at all
Don't you ever worry when you see what's going down?
Well, I try to mind my business, that is, no business at all
When it's time to function as a feeling, human being
Will your bachelor of arts help you get by?
I hope to study further, a few more years or so
I also hope to keep a steady high
Ooh-whoo, yeah
Will you try to change things, use the power that you have?
Power of a million new ideas?
What is this power you speak of and the need for things to change?
I always thought that everything was fine
Everything is fine!
Don't you feel repression just closing in around?
No, the campus here is very, very free
Don't it make you angry the way war is dragging on?
Well, I hope the president knows what he's into, I don't know
Ooh, I just don't know, yeah
Don't you see starvation in the city where you live?
All the needless hunger, all the needless pain?
Ooh, I haven't been there lately, the country is so fine
My neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
Haven't got the time
I want to thank you for the talk, you know, you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes of things to come
Well, if you had my outlook, your feelings would be numb
You'd always think that everything was fine
Everything was fine
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah!
We can change the world now
We can change the world now
We can change the world now
Whoa
We can save the children
We can save the children
We can save the children
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
We could make it better
We could make it better
We could make it better
Whoa
We could make it happen
We could make it happen
We could make it happen
Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah!
We could make it happen
We could make it happen
We could make it happen
Whoa
