Lyrics:

The world is precious, a gift to you and me
I suggest we treat her right, with love and dignity
Everybody's looking for some peace of mind
If you seek the truth then you will surely find
Everybody wants to have global peace
Whilst the press of a button can shake the world to its knees
 Chorus:
Can you hear what I'm saying, whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
Can you hear what I'm saying, whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
There are those who say might is right, I beg to disagree
I say we all unite and redirect our destiny
Everybody's looking for a quick solution
Our lungs are choking from breathing air pollution
I say put down your guns and stop the revolution
And say this time we make a restitution, yes
chorus - can you hear me now
chorus repeats 2x
Can you hear me now, I am calling out to you
(Can you hear me calling out to you, can you hear me calling out to you)
There's so much starvation, there's so much pain
There's so much prejudice, there's so much liquidation - oh how long, how long
Can you hear what I'm saying
Africa, America, oh Eurasia, Latin Africa
