So much trouble in the world now [x2]
Bless my eyes this morning
Jah sun is on the rise once again
The way earthly things are going
Anything can happen

You see men sailing on their ego trips
Blast off on their spaceships
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me
So much trouble in the world now [x2]
All you’ve got to do is give a little
Give a little, give a little
One more time ye-a-h! ye-ah!

So you think you have found the solution
But it’s just another illusion
So before you check out your tide
Don’t leave another cornerstone standing there behind
We have got to face the day, ooh [bad word] what may
We the street people talking, we the people [bad word] 

Now they are sitting on a time bomb
Now I now the time [bad word] 
What goes up [bad word] down
Goes [bad word] around
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
There is so much trouble, there is so much trouble
There is so much trouble
There is so much trouble in the world
There is so much trouble in the world
