Wake up everybody   Take a good look around   There's far too many reasons   For all the troubles goin' down   Jesus is watchin'   And the devil is alive   Buddha is cryin'   And Allah is mystified   Brothers killin' brothers   And our children in the streets   We gotta change the times   We gotta change the times      The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in   There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again      Down on every corner   We got children sellin' dope   Who's gonna send a message   And try to give 'em hope   Jesus is watchin'   And the devil is alive   Buddha is cryin'   And Allah is mystified   Brothers killin' brothers   And our children in the streets   We gotta change the times   We gotta change the times      The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in   There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again   Oh what a shame when they try to pretend   All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again      Can't buy love with a paycheck   It means nothin' to a boy and girl   You need universal love of all mankind   To change what's wrong with the world      The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in   There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again   Oh what a shame when they try to pretend   All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again
