(Andy Fraser)Look around, my brother
There's a world at your command
You'd realize it
If you'd only lift your head up from your hands
Sail away from your troubles
Free as a bird up in the sky
Paradise is waiting in your mindAin't no use sat complaining
Woman, that life don't go our way
Idly wishing that tomorrow
Will come save us from today
Being tired of living with no money in your hand
Trying to find someone to understandIt's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and nowIt's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and nowSo come on, let's get together
Sharing in love and happiness
Dah etc, whooo etcYeah it's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and nowWhooo etc, dana dana etc
