Politics of Compassion

Oh, yeah
Whoo!

I started out to write a simple song
To make you dance and have you sing along
I grabbed a pen, my mind began to turn
And got me thinkin'
I can't waste a single word

How can we sit back, relax and take it easy
When we see all our world's goin' through
Children of light, let the darkness make decisions
Before they snuff us out
Here's what we've got to do, say!

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
Yes, we do, everyday
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In thе sight of political compassion

You won't find love in a bottle or a drug
You won't find it in a one night stand
You need so much morе
Everything you're lookin' for is here
If you'll just reach out your hand, oh, baby

How can we sit back, relax and take it easy
When we see all our world's goin' through
Children of light, let the darkness make decisions
Before they snuff us out
Here's what we've got to do, say!

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
Exactly what you're tryin' to do
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In the sight of political compassion
Whoo!

The politics of compassion
They're ruinin' your fashion
But you wouldn't notice
You're too busy tryin' to be so cool
They've got you fooled
Scratch their back and they'll stab yours
Of course he says he loves ya
He doesn't even know ya
Ya met him just tonight
And already he wants to show ya
How good he is in bed
But tomorrow you'll see
He'll be sayin' "so long
And send the doctor bill to me"
Now what about drugs and all that stuff
Take a hit, little more, that's enough
Now they got you hooked
Just like a big fish
And you can't get away
No matter how you wish
All this stuff makes me sick
Just to think that we idolize the things
That kill our family
What to do, what to do
We gotta get a clue
The future of the world depends on you
If you're tired of the system jerkin' Y.O.U
Then you know what to do
Join along with the crew and say!

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
Oh, yeah, yeah
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In the sight of political compassion

How can we sit back, relax and take it easy
When we see all our world's goin' through
Children of light, let the darkness make decisions
Before they snuff us out
Here's what we've got to do, say!

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
Exactly what you're tryin' to do
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In the sight of political compassion

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In the sight of political compassion

No, we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We see what you're tryin' to do
What's right is wrong
What was wrong is not right
In the sight of political compassion...
