wild world

i don't know about you

but i like to tell the truth

but the truth seems to change every tuesday

when i watch the news

man

it just gives me the blues

no one listens

just on a mission to hear their own voice

it's a wild world

we're all trying to find our place in it

it's a wild world

and no one seems to understand it

it's a wild world

but there ain't no way i'm gonna quit it

love is all we've got to give away

some folks ain't got a dollar to their name

others got their own jet planes

we've all got the same blood running through our veins

whether or not you pray

black or white

straight or gay

you still deserve the love of your neighbor

it's a wild world

we're all trying to find our place in it

it's a wild world

and no one seems to understand it

it's a wild world

but there ain't no way i'm gonna quit it

love is all we've got to give away

try a little tenderness

maybe some benefit of the doubt

another person's point of view

try to listen not to shout

hold your opinions loosely

maybe you're not always right

show a little mercy

and hold on to love real tight

it's a wild world

we're all trying to find our place in it

it's a wild world

and no one seems to understand it

it's a wild world

but there ain't no way i'm gonna quit it

love is all we've got to give away

love is all i've got to give away

love is all we've got to give away
