Better People (Great Grandmother song) |
|
Yeah Yeah! |
|
Yeah Yeah! |
|
(Verse 1:) |
|
I wish there was a video game |
|
to teach you your ancestors name |
|
I wish there was a phone number |
|
like 1-800-Save-Your-Brother |
|
I'm thankful for the radio station |
|
Not afraid to put the truth in rotation |
|
there are skirts of information |
|
That you can only get in conversation with... |
|
(Chorus:) |
|
Young People, who talk to |
|
Old People, it would make us |
|
Better People, all around... |
|
(Yes it would) |
|
And if Old People would talk to |
|
Young People, it would make us |
|
Better People, all around.... |
|
(Yes it would) |
|
(Verse 2:) |
|
We went from radio to TV |
|
Now we're going from LP to CD |
|
Don't be afraid |
|
To try something new |
|
I can help you with the brand new technology |
|
Help me with the age old philosophy |
|
Together there's so much we can do with: |
|
(Chorus:) |
|
Young People, who talk to |
|
Old People, it would make us |
|
Better People, all around... |
|
And if Old People would talk to |
|
Young People, it would make us |
|
Better People, all around.... |
|
They say that every |
|
Generation gets worse |
|
Whether if your generous or no purse |
|
These problems tend to strive off the sky (yeah) |
|
Listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words |
|
Be the change you want to see in the world |
|
Start with yourself and healing will multiply |
|
AAAAAAH, that's what happens When.. |
|
(Chorus:) |
|
Young People, who talk to |
|
Old People, it would make us |
|
Better People, all around... |
|
If Old People would talk to |
|
Young People, it would..... |
|
Better People, all around.... |
|
If black people |
|
Would talk to white people |
|
It would make us |
|
Better People |
|
All Around.... |
|
If Republican people would |
|
Talk to Democratic people |
|
It would make us diplomatic people |
|
(laugh) All Around..... |
