Everyday you look at the evening news
What you see is the same old story
Depressing information always hits you in the face
Tell me where, where it ends
People fightin' with their children
Children fightin' with their teachers
People fightin' with each other
We got to compromise
And let the walls come down
That separates you and me
Let the walls come down
We could be livin' in harmony
If we wanna see the future
We gotta stick together right away

They're saving all their guns for a rainy day
Just think about it
Some are black and some are white
Who's wrong and who's right
Let's talk about it
Tear down the fences that keep getting in our way

And let the walls come down
That separates you and me
Let the walls come down
We could be livin' in harmony
If we wanna see the future
We gotta stick together right away

We need communication, love and jubilation
Tear down the fences that keep getting in our way

And let the walls come down
That separates you and me
Let the walls come down
We could be livin' in harmony
If we wanna see the future
We gotta stick together right away
