Living in the 90's trying to get buy
recession's hitting hard makes the price of living high
suppression, depression
you wonder why you're poor
politicians promising you're gonna have more
more bills more taxes more money to pay
Makes you wonder why you're working your whole life away
some are born into money and never have to worry
spend their time doing nothing
while you spend yours in a hurry
Living 9 to 5 can fill you full of stress
full of wondering what it's all about
and leave you depressed
while the man on the TV says inflation's getting higher
leaves you feeling down and out with only one desire
to fill your belly with the bottle
that will ease the pain either that or
you feel like you'll just go insane
some say it's a sad time living the lies
with pockets full of money
why open their eyes
It's a groovy love vibration, coast to coast and nation to nation
I feel the earth under the sky
beneath my feet I hear her cry
I close my eyes at night to pray
If the children ask why what will we say
Education is falling like the rise of inflation
depression is spreading like disease through the nations
united we stand, divided we fall
the answers lie within us all
People are people, we're one and the same
we can't point a finger if there's no one to blame
A man on the corner carries a sign
testament to the truth that we're blinded
It's a groovy love vibration, coast to coast and nation to nation
I feel the earth under the sky
beneath my feet I hear her cry
I close my eyes at night to pray
If the children ask why what will we say
We're just trying to spread some enthusiasm and indianism
I N D I A N I S M
adopting all creatures as brothers an sisters
one nation under a groovy yin yang and do our own thing
harmony with nature just as our ancestors knew and prophesized the coming
Armageddon our common karma psychedelia warning
is the hole in the ozone rapidly depleting
supplies of air food and water
saying sayonara baby and diminishing our chances of survival
at an outstanding alarming rate get with it baby
basically anything you believe in your mind
has the possibility to become a reality
respect out to the DJ
Did you every start to think or ever start to wonder
what the world would be like if the world knew no color
if we knew no injustice like the color of hate
we could secure our future to a fortunate fate
because united we stand divided we fall
it's a wonder we're still here at all
because the land of the brave is the home of the free
and if you choose to be afraid then I guess you don't see
that the more you love the less you fear
I'll say it once more in case you did not hear
that you can choose to live by love or choose to live a lie
but if you do don't forget to kiss the children goodbye
