Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Please stop all the wars today
Nuclear bombs and acid rain
Please help find a cure for AIDS
Don't let my friends die this way

I don't like what's going on
All the people without homes
There's people starving in the street
Well open your eyes it's you and me

If I don't wake up today
Sorry if I caused you any pain
If I don't wake up today
It wouldn't matter anyway

Please put an end to the prejudice
Crooked cops and presidents
Please keep all the kids off dope
Crack and smack so I can cope
Please help fix the hole in the sky
And all the violence that makes us cry
Please stop death and [bad word] So that society can begin to function
Give the homeless food to eat
Help them get back on their feet

I don't like what's going on
All the people without homes
There's people starving in the street
Well open your eyes it's you and me

If I don't wake up today
Sorry if I caused you any pain
If I don't wake up today
It wouldn't matter anyway

If I don't wake up today
Sorry if I caused you any pain
If I don't wake up today
It wouldn't matter anyway

I don't like what's going on
All the people without homes
There's people starving in the street
Well open your eyes it's you and me

If I don't wake up today
Sorry if I caused you any pain
If I don't wake up today
It wouldn't matter anyway
