New Leaf

When everybody dies around you, from someone else's gun
It really makes you stop and think about the years to come
Something good had to happen to the human race
We all had better stop hoping and set our heads on straight

You've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
'Cause that old one's turning on you (ah, ah, ah)
We've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
If the future's only hoped for, we are doomed

Today is over, it's already shot
So we can think about ourselves
They keep on working on our nature
They're saying that can only help
Start throwing out your pockets
Will keep what you really only need
Save life and earth and water
There can't be any other need

You've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
'Cause that old one's turning on you (ah, ah, ah)
We've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
If the future's only hoped for, we are doomed

You've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
'Cause that old one's turning on you (ah, ah, ah)
You've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
And let your love come on through

You've gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
'Cause that old one's turning on you (ah, ah, ah)
We gotta turn over a new leaf (turn over a new leaf)
A new, a new, a new
