Lyrics

EVERYBODY KNOWS

THE TROUBLE I'VE SEEN

WE ALL LIVE IT EACH AND EVERY DAY

WISHIN' AND HOPIN'

AIN'T MADE IT GO AWAY

NO NO NO

LOOKIN' FOR HEROES

WHEREVER WE GO

HOPIN' THAT THEY WILL KNOW

BUT THEY DON'T KNOW ANY MORE

THAN YOU OR ME

AND THAT'S THE TRAGEDY

CHORUS

COME ON PEOPLE

LET'S TAKE A STAND

LET'S JOIN TOGETHER

AND SAVE OUR LAND

THE TIME HAS COME

FOR EVERYONE TO TRY

NO ALIBIS

COME ON PEOPLE

THE TIME IS NOW

LET'S PUT OUR SHOULDERS

TO THE PLOW

SOWIN' THE SEEDS

OF FUTURE NEEDS TODAY

HEY HEY HEY

VERSE TWO

I KNOW IT'S EASIER

SAID THAN DONE

BUT IT ALL STARTS WITH ONE

AND THE ONE I'M TALKIN' TO

IS YOU

YA YA YOU

IT'S GONNA TAKE

ROLLIN' UP OUR SLEEVES

AND QUIT RELYING ON MAKEBELIEVE

NO MAGIC TRICKS WILL HELP US FIX

WHAT'S WRONG

JUST LISTEN TO THIS SONG

VERSE THREE

EVERYBODY KNOWS

THE TROUBLE I'VE SEEN

WE ALL LIVE IT EACH AND EVERY DAY

WISHIN' AND HOPIN'

AIN'T MADE IT GO AWAY

NO NO NO

IT'S GONNA TAKE

ME AND YOU

AND THE ONLY COLORS THAT COUNT

ARE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

SO LET'S GET GOIN 'CAUSE WE'VE

GOT LOTS OF WORK TO DO

YA YA YA
