"Make love, not war," we say
It's easy to recite, but it don't mean a damn
Unless we're going to fight, but not with guns and knives
We've got to save the lives of every boy and girl
That grows up in this world
There's hunger everywhere
We've got to take a stand
Reach out for someone's hand
Love makes the world go round
It's easy to forget
If you don't hear the sound of pain and prejudice
Love makes the world go round
They think that love's a lie
But we can teach them how to try
Love means to understand
Reach out for someone's hand
Because everything you do
Comes back in time to you
We have to change our fate before it gets too late
There's hunger everywhere
We've got to take a stand
Reach out for someone's hand
Love makes the world go round
It's easy to forget
If you don't hear the sound of pain and prejudice
Love makes the world go round
Don't judge a man until you've been standing in his shoes
You know that we're all so quick to look away
Because it's the easy thing to do
You know that what I say is true
Love makes the world go round
Make love not war we say
It's easy to recite, but it don't mean a damn
Unless we're going to fight
There's hunger everywhere
We've got to take a stand
Reach out for someone's hand
Love makes the world go round
It's easy to forget
If you don't hear the sound of pain and prejudice
Love makes the world go round
La la la la la la la
It's easy to recite, but it don't mean a damn
Unless we're going to fight, but not with guns and knives
We've got to save the lives of every boy and girl
That grows up in this world
There's hunger everywhere
We've got to take a stand
Reach out for someone's hand
Love makes the world go round
It's easy to forget
If you don't hear the sound of pain and prejudice
Love makes the world go round
They think that love's a lie
But we can teach them how to try
Love means to understand
