[Chorus:] Young people would talk to Old people, it would make us a Better people all around (Yes, it would) And if old people would talk to Young people, it would make us Better people all around (Yes, it would) (Yeah, yeah) We went from radio to TV Now we're going from LP to CD Don't be afraid to try something new (yeah) I can help you with the brand new technology

[Chorus] (Yeah, yeah) They say that every generation gets worse They call it a generational curse But these problems don't just drop out the sky (yeah) But listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words And be the change you want to see in the world Start with yourself, and healing will multiply Ah, that's what happens when... [Chorus] If black people would talk to white people It would make us a better people all around If Republican people would talk to Democratic people It would make us diplomatic people all around
