Canned Heat - The World Today lyrics

rate me

I wonder why this world is sweet Hell

I wonder why this world is in uproar

Everyday you read about somethin' new

They're fightin' all over the world

People fightin' all over the world

Race against race, they're fightin' everyday

I wonder when, disaster comin' to a end

I wonder when, I wonder when

This nightmare comin' to a end

I can't believe it's gonna last always

And every time I pick up a paper

I always read bad news

And every time I pick up a paper

I always read bad news

I wonder when this nightmare is gonna end

You find so many young people

They're fightnin' in every town, on campus

You find so many young people

They're fightnin' in every town, on campus

I don't know, don't know, what they're right or wrong

But they're kind of fightin' for their rights, yeah, yeah, yeah

The old people leave the young kids alone

Let them run their own lives, yeah, yeah

The old folks leave the young kids alone

And let them run their own life

It's a brand new world today

Look at here now, you'll find some of them old people

They're not hip to the modern days

They want their kids to live like they live

But no, them days are gone

It's a brand new world

One way to solve their problem, it takes time

The old coots die out and leave it to the young kids

Be a beautiful world and then

There won't be no fighting on campus any more

'Cause my kids and your kids, when they grow up and get drunk

They'll understand, all old coots are gone in their grave

But as long as they live there's gonna be figitin' in every town

Hey, hey, in every campus, the young kids walkin' out

Hey, hey, hey, hey, the old folks when they're gone, when they're gone

It'll be a better world to live in

Couple a young kids is the world today

Thank you
