Another Sunny Day 12-25 Lyrics

We see it on TV we get calls on the phone
By the prophets of doom they wont
leave us alone
The planet is dying and theres no time to spare
They spend
all our days sowing seeds of despair
We get enough bad news to harden our
hearts
This fear what we feed on is whats keeping us apart
To say that we
doomed is just an obvious remark
And it dont make you right it just keep you
in the dark
I dont want to live angry
I dont want to live scared
i
dont need no more prophets crying
"Brother beware"
Just put some work in
my hand
And give me a dollar to spare
And dont let me sow those seeds of
despair
Well this earth is a graveyard it will swallow our bones
It was
here long before us it will be here when were gone
And its a vain generation
that looks for a sign
Dont you think we could make better use of our
time
Yeah, the air could be cleaner and the water could be too
but what
we do to each other are the worst things that we do
And we can treasure our
freedoms behind our locked doors
But God speed the day when were lonely no
more
I dont want to live angry
I dont want to live scared
i dont need
no more prophets crying
"Brother beware"
Just put some work in my
hand
And give me a dollar to spare
And dont let me sow those seeds of
despair
