[00:11.80]
[00:13.14]Lately mother earth has been feeling unsatisfied,
[00:18.99]I'd say it's plain from the rain the sweet lady's started to cry,
[00:25.18]Fires crackle and blaze in the rays of her burning heart,
[00:29.25]and I don't think it's smart to,
[00:31.64]Lay and wait for the day that she dies in our arms.
[00:35.22]
[00:36.83]We gotta do something,
[00:39.56]We gotta do something,
[00:42.87]Before mother earth gets anymore hurt,
[00:46.27]We gotta do something!
[00:48.91]
[00:51.23]From what I've read there's a lotta bad stuff in the world today,
[00:57.43]It's been said it's getting rough to find a place where the children play,
[01:02.74]So, Mr Prime Minister and Mr President you better see that it's
[01:08.11]not only me, no, our mob is rising in size,
[01:11.60]and they've been dying to scream out to you!
[01:14.72]
[01:15.26]You gotta do something,
[01:18.02]We gotta do something,
[01:21.59]Sometimes I sit in my room and I don't know what to do,
[01:24.51]but we've gotta do something!
[01:26.89]
[01:27.63]It's time to do something,
[01:30.50]Someone should do something,
[01:33.62]We gotta do something,
[01:36.35]and that someone is you,
[01:37.47]
[01:38.00]and you and you and you!
[01:39.87]
[01:41.56]I pray it ain't all lost and gone,
[01:46.89]I pray we might learn right from wrong,
[01:52.91]and I pray this broken day, will not last too long,
[01:58.78]I pray that you believe my song ... Darlin'!
[02:05.51]
[02:12.34]You know I'm sorry if this is hard for you to take,
[02:15.94]But a lot of it just needs saying,
[02:18.39]and I don't see anyone else out there,
[02:20.40]giving out this message,
[02:21.90]and if I don't do this, Who's gonna do it?
[02:25.17]And maybe, if someone hears these words,
[02:27.61]maybe the whole world gets round and listens,
[02:30.49]to what I'm sayin', and maybe we have a chance.
[02:33.72]Because I don't wanna see another child crying,
[02:36.39]I don't wanna see another dog dying in the streets,
[02:40.39]I can't see another homeless man, because it doesn't seem right to me,
[02:44.81]He's got a home, and he's not got a home,
[02:47.04]What's the point in that?
[02:48.58]Why can't we all just get together, in one big home,
[02:52.80]and if I was in Government,
[02:54.41]Then I'd Government things much more differentlier,
[02:57.33]because it ain't the best way to government things,
[03:00.13]So there's poor people everywhere,
[03:02.24]You know I would just be sittin' alone,
[03:04.40]Thinkin' "How can I do something?",
[03:06.69]'Cos I ain't gonna be in chains no-more,
[03:08.88]You lot might have been conned, but I ain't been conned,
[03:12.32]'Cos I'm a free man, I'm free, and I'm gonna let my soul soar,
[03:17.00]and the way I do that is through my music,
[03:20.30]so why don't you do something?
