Seems appropriate to break out this song/video. Was one of my High School favorites . Over 40 years later, the words have meaning. Those guitar rifts are brilliant.
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
‘Til there are no rich no more I’d love to change the world
But I don’t know what to do
So I’ll leave it up to you, Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money, No none for meI’d love to change the world
But I don’t know what to do
So I’ll leave it up to you. Oh yeah!World pollution, there’s no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Senators stop the war, I’d love to change the world
But I don’t know what to do
So I’ll leave it up to you
They were singing about the World in the 80’s too. My son brought up a certain portion of these Lyrics past weekend.

“Everybody Wants To Rule The World”
Welcome to your life
There’s no turning back
Even while sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It’s my own design
It’s my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There’s a room where the light won’t find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I’ll be right behind you
So glad we’ve almost made it
So sad they had fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world I can’t stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you’ll never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
I am a Rocker by Heart

Would Love to Change the World, but don’t know what to do?

After all these years we still have the same problems. No one fixed anything back then and we won’t fix anything now. Great choice.
muse, I cannot believe it when I linked the Lyrics.
