"Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand He said, stick by me, I'll be your guiding hand" I'd like to ask if I may presume Live and direct from my living room As we bend down to prey And ask, "is there a better way?" If you made the world, made the day and night Are we all going crazy, why do men fight? If you made the mountains and the sea Now can you show a better way to be? "Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand He said, stick by me, I'll be your guiding hand" And the wrong are the right and the right are the wrong Why can't we all just get along? And there's no one to blame It's not some bloody game If you made the world, made the day and night Are we all going crazy, why do men fight? If you made the mountains and the sea Now can you show a better way to be? Religion, race, colour, creed, whatever Law, job, race, drugs, whatever I can hear what they say that there must be a better way Law, job, race, drugs, whatever Why do men fight? "Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand He said, stick by me, I'll be your guiding hand" I'd like to ask if I my presume Live and direct from my living room As you bend down to pray And ask, "is there a better way?" These things I planned I can't understand If you made the ocean and the land Trying to find Some peace of mind If you made the world, made the day and night Are we all going crazy, why do men fight? If you made the mountains and the sea Now can you show a better way to be? Religion, race, colour, creed, whatever Law, job, race, drugs, whatever I can hear what they say, there must be a better way Why do men fight?
