some people see this world in shades of blue
and some people believe, money speaks the truth
some people asking where there aint no answer
and some people wanna make the world spin a little faster
some people get to fly in a rocket to the moon
and some people they get fed from a silver spoon
whole lot of people live in pain and misery
look at the people (pause) look at you and me
oh... we need a whole lot of l - o - v - e,
a whole lotta love
some people sittin pretty one side of a fence
and some people wonder what the hell their life has meant
some people so angry just wanna stand and fight
and some people smile (pause) but they know this world aint right
oh... we need a whole lot of l - o - v - e,
a whole lotta love
