Spokes in a Wheel

WE’RE ON A LITTLE BLUE ROCK CALLED MOTHER EARTH
SPINNING OUR WAY THROUGH THE UNIVERSE
ALL THE CONDITIONS CAME TOGETHER JUST RIGHT
AND BLESSED US WITH THIS GIFT OF LIFE
NOW THERE’S A ZILLION FOLKS FILLIN’ UP THIS PLANET
WE CAN NO LONGER TAKE HER FOR GRANTED
WE’RE SPOKES IN A WHEEL TURNIN’ ‘ROUND TOGETHER
WE CAN MAKE THIS WORLD WORK FOR THE BETTER
WE’RE ALL CONNECTED WE’RE ALL AFFECTED
BY EVERY SINGLE THING THAT WE DO
PEOPLE ME AND YOU ARE SPOKES IN A WHEEL
WE’RE THE WATER THAT WE DRINK THE AIR WE BREATHE
THE LOVE WE SHARE THE FOOD WE EAT
IT’S TIME WE LAID OUR DIFFERENCES DOWN
SO WE CAN PLANT OUR DREAMS IN SOME COMMON GROUND
WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR ALL OF US TO BE WILLIN’
TO LOOK AT WHAT WE’RE LEAVIN’ TO OUR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN
WE’RE SPOKES IN A WHEEL TURNIN’ ‘ROUND TOGETHER
WE CAN MAKE THIS WORLD WORK FOR THE BETTER
WE’RE ALL CONNECTED WE’RE ALL AFFECTED
BY EVERY SINGLE THING THAT WE DO
PEOPLE ME AND YOU ARE SPOKES IN A WHEEL
WE CAN NO LONGER PREDICT THE FUTURE
BY LOOKING AT THE PAST
IF WE DON’T HONOR THE DELICATE BALANCE
WHO KNOWS HOW LONG WE’LL LAST
WE’RE SPOKES IN A WHEEL TURNIN’ ‘ROUND TOGETHER
WE CAN MAKE THIS WORLD WORK FOR THE BETTER
WE’RE ALL CONNECTED WE’RE ALL AFFECTED
BY EVERY SINGLE THING THAT WE DO
PEOPLE ME AND YOU ARE SPOKES IN A WHEEL
