Live 8

Live 8

The Black Eyed Peas and a green, Green Day;

I want this day to last forever, thank Bob for giving us Live 8.

A day of great bands, playing all their best songs;

From Bono and McCartney, through to Snoop Doggy Dogg.

All over the world, great bands play great songs;

We all know the words, so come on sing along.

Some people are pants; some become great human beings.

One day of your life, dedicated to the revolution.

Television to the world, a united way of thinking;

We must all join in, to find a solution.

A whole day of music, for a world with one feeling;

To tell your fellow man, to keep on believing.

One day we will end this and make Africa one great nation;

Sir Bob showed us the way, now we must start the revolution.

Twenty four hours of music, is a gift to the world;

It will enlighten any mind, but you can't forget the cause.

You can't have a great day and forget the dying boys and girls;

Because one moment will affect you,

It will soon change your world.

Some people are pants; some become great human beings.

One day of your life, dedicated to the revolution.

Television to the world, a united way of thinking;

We must all join in, to find a solution.

A kid gets to his feet, to not die in front of his sister;

There lays a baby, just waiting to die.

Without Bobs irate temper and the visions of Africa;

I would have felt nothing, I wouldn't have cried.

Then they showed a girl, who was so close to death;

If we all did nothing, she wouldn't be here now.

But Live Aid gave her life, helped her take a deep breath;

One vision of human beauty, as she looks out at the crowd.

This incredible woman, would not have grown to become a woman;

We would have denied the world, of such a beautiful face.

I would have never, seen such a beautiful angelic image;

Now I see her as a vision.  Human being’s saving grace.

Some people are pants; some become great human beings.

One day of your life, dedicated to the revolution.

Television to the world, a united way of thinking;

We must all join in, to find a solution.
