Aaron Neville - Fragile World lyrics

Fragile world Everyone's in the path So no one's safe from its mighty wrath Tornadoes, earthquakes, and hurricanes Forest fires, mudslides, torrential rain Heatwaves, floods and blizzards Melting the polar ice And if all that's not bad enough Humans just won't play nice There's so much beyond our control With the things we do We surely take toll Like people committing suicide Just to take unsuspecting innocent lives Likes meteors falling from the skies Politicians telling lies Like Marvin said, ‘Oil spilled all over our oceans and our seas' I agree with him by saying ‘Mercy, Mercy Me' And wanting to know ‘What's Going On?' I'd like to know where the love has gone All over these United divided States There's still so much fear and so much hate Will we ever get it together, on this Earth? We're all sisters and brothers Like Marvin said, ‘We better live together as brothers and sisters or die together as fools' Stop filling our hearts with hatred and breaking all the rules Since we're the higher-ups on the animal chain But sometimes we just don't use our brains At least animals k** for food, man k**s in his neighborhood Nuclear threats all over the land Man wants to annihilate other man Tears for Fears said, ‘Everybody wants to rule the world' But it belongs to every woman, man, boy and girl See, we all have our right to share this land Don't just belong to one man I don't have all the answers; I don't think anybody does If there was a cure for cancer and a whole lot more love I'll say a prayer before I go to sleep And ask God for all our souls to keep A fragile, fragile world, is all we got, y'all I just wanna say peace on Earth and goodwill to everything and everybody from this one and only planet Make it right
