I had a warning, been taking stock Woke up in the morning, woke up with a shock I had been dreaming of a better place Where I got along with the human race Have a little faith in people and don't start another war I don't want to be that kind of person anymore Have a little faith in humankind and the future's looking bright Time to smile and reconcile and you will be alright You have a place to sit with a roof above and somebody loves you I had a brainwave we could get along I had a close shave, I was wrong Made some phone calls to some old friends And buried the hatchet and made amends Have a little faith in people and don't start another war I don't want to be that kind of person anymore Have a little faith in humankind and the future's looking bright Time to smile and reconcile and you will be alright You have a place to sit with a roof above and somebody loves you
