People look around you
Open your eyes and see
What kind of world this could be
If we didn't have hunger hate along with misery
How many of you out there
Have really seen hungry children running around in the street
Did you reach out with a helping hand
Or did you just turn your head and say I didn't see
Isn't it funny
About people hating each other
When they should be trying to do love, treat, be kind
To each other
And if all these things were done
What a beautiful place this world would be
No more ghettos where children have to play
No more slums where families have to stay
No more young men will have to die
And if all these things were done
No more mothers and fathers would have to cry
Now listen
Wouldn't it be a lovely place
For you and I
Couldn't you just see
Mmhm
