Got To Do Better

Lyrics

Generation after generation
 Raised on bitter tears
 Confrontation after confrontation
 Too many years
 Politicians gettin' nowhere
 Peace talks breakin' down
 Stones an' bullets flyin' throuqh the air
 Wounded dyin' on the ground
 We got to do better
 When it comes to the Golden Rule
 Obey it to the letter
 Everything would be cool, huh
 Hatred's a luxury
 The price is too high
 Got to do better
 If we want to survive
 We need a total revision
 Of the way we understand
 We're talkin' race an' religion
 Money an' land
 We're supposed to be learnin'
 To love one another
 Instead the streets are burnin'
 Brother killin' brother
 We got to do better
 When it comes to the Golden Rule
 Obey it to the letter
 Everything would be cool
 Hatred's a luxury
 The price is too high
 We got to do better, huh
 If we want to survive
 (Oh, do unto others)
 Do unto others (oh, yeah)
 As you would have
 (Oh, as you would have them do unto you)
 Them do unto you
 Got to do better
 When it comes to the Golden Rule
 Obey it to the letter
 Everything would be cool
 Hatred's a luxury, huh
 The price is too high, oh
 We got to do better
 If we want to survive
 We got to do better
 If we want to survive
 (We got to do better) ooh!
 If we want to survive
 We're got to do better
 (Hey, hey, yea yea yea)
 We got to do better
 You know, we got to do better, huh
 If we want to survive
 We got to do better, oh, you know
 If we want to survive
 We got to do better
 Beter, better, now, yeah
 We got to do better
 (We got to do better) oh, yeah yeah
 We got to do better (oh, yeah)
 We got to do better (oh, yeah, c'mon)
 We got to do better
 We got to do better
 (If we want to survive)
 (Money!)
 I, I have to try
