When You Gonna Learn
Have you heard the news today
People right across the world
Are pledging they will play the game
Victims of a modern world
Circumstance has brought us here
Armageddon's come too near
Too too near now
Now foresight is the only key
To save our children's destiny
The consequences are so grave
So so grave now
The hypocrites we are their slaves
So my friend to stop the end
On each other we depend oh we depend
Mountain high and river deep
We gotta stop it going on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh people, stop it going on
Oh yeah
Have you heard the news today
Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant
Now don't talk about quantity
'Cause there's no fish left in the sea
Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was
So you better play it nature's way
Or she will take it all away
And don't try tell me you know more than her about right or wrong
Oh you've upset the balance man
Done the only thing you can
Now my life is in your hands
In your hands, it's in your hands
Mountain high and river deep yes
We gotta stop it going on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep, yeah people
We gotta stop it going on
Mountain high and river deep
We gotta stop it going on, yes we do
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh people, we gotta stop it going on
Oh when you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
People right across the world
Are pledging they will play the game
Victims of a modern world
Circumstance has brought us here
Armageddon's come too near
Too too near now
Now foresight is the only key
To save our children's destiny
The consequences are so grave
So so grave now
The hypocrites we are their slaves
So my friend to stop the end
On each other we depend oh we depend
Mountain high and river deep
We gotta stop it going on
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh people, stop it going on
Oh yeah
Have you heard the news today
Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant
Now don't talk about quantity
'Cause there's no fish left in the sea

In your hands, it's in your hands
Mountain high and river deep yes

We gotta wake this world up from its sleep, yeah people
We gotta stop it going on
Mountain high and river deep
We gotta stop it going on, yes we do
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep
Oh people, we gotta stop it going on
Oh when you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
When you gonna learn stop it going on
