Weve Got to do Something

Weve Got to do Something!
Infant Sorrow



Lately mother earth has been feeling unsatisfied,
Id say its plain from the rain the sweet ladys started to cry,
Fires crackle and blaze in the rays of her burning heart,
and I dont think its smart to,
Lay and wait for the day that she dies in our arms.

We gotta do something ,
We gotta do something,
Before mother earth gets anymore hurt,
We gotta do something!

From what Ive read theres a lotta bad stuff in the world today,
Its been said its getting rough to find a place where the children play,
So, Mr Prime Minister and Mr President you better see that its
not only me, no, our mob is rising in size,
and theyve been dying to scream out to you!

You gotta do something,
We gotta do something,
Sometimes I sit in my room and I dont know what to do,
but weve gotta do something!

Its time to do something,
Someone should do something,
We gotta do something,
and that someone is you,

and you and you and you!

I pray it aint all lost and gone,
I pray we might learn right from wrong,
and I pray this broken day, will not last too long,
I pray that you believe my song ... Darlin!

You know Im sorry if this is hard for you to take,
But a lot of it just needs saying,
and I dont see anyone else out there,
giving out this message,
and if I dont do this, Whos gonna do it?
And maybe, if someone hears these words,
maybe the whole world gets round and listens,
to what Im sayin, and maybe we have a chance.
Because I dont wanna see another child crying,
I dont wanna see another dog dying in the streets,
I cant see another homeless man, because it doesnt seem right to me,
Hes got a home, and hes not got a home,
Whats the point in that?
Why cant we all just get together, in one big home,
and if I was in Government,
Then Id Government things much more differentlier,
because it aint the best way to government things,
So theres poor people everywhere,
You know I would just be sittin alone,
Thinkin 'How can I do something?',
Cos I aint gonna be in chains no-more,
You lot might have been conned, but I aint been conned,
Cos Im a free man, Im free, and Im gonna let my soul soar,
and the way I do that is through my music,
so why dont you do something?
