India.arie - Great Grandmother lyrics

Better People (Great Grandmother song) Yeah Yeah! Yeah Yeah! (Verse 1:) I wish there was a video game to teach you your ancestors name I wish there was a phone number like 1-800-Save-Your-Brother I'm thankful for the radio station Not afraid to put the truth in rotation there are skirts of information That you can only get in conversation with... (Chorus:) Young People, who talk to Old People, it would make us 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) (Verse 2:) We went from radio to TV Now we're going from LP to CD Don't be afraid To try something new I can help you with the brand new technology Help me with the age old philosophy Together there's so much we can do with: (Chorus:) Young People, who talk to Old People, it would make us Better People, all around... And if Old People would talk to Young People, it would make us Better People, all around.... They say that every Generation gets worse Whether if your generous or no purse These problems tend to strive off the sky (yeah) Listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words Be the change you want to see in the world Start with yourself and healing will multiply AAAAAAH, that's what happens When.. (Chorus:) Young People, who talk to Old People, it would make us Better People, all around... If Old People would talk to Young People, it would..... Better People, all around.... If black people Would talk to white people It would make us Better People All Around.... If Republican people would Talk to Democratic people It would make us diplomatic people (laugh) All Around.....
