With just one kiss you could change the world It might not be much better but it certainly couldn't hurt When you stomp your feet you aren't hurting me But you're always killing something just by living on the earth
So who you supposed to listen to when you're looking for something to do And all the voices shut you up 'Cause someone put a brick in your coffee cup When you're trying to decide whether to walk or to ride Take the easy way you know that you want to
I saw an educated girl give her hair a twirl And contemplate the meaning of a man with just one arm She's not a genius or a dunce but it makes no difference For at any moment we might find ourselves a charm
But I'm feeling quite confused by the people who refuse to see A simple way of life don't make you the loser They say we won't make it far if we don't drive there in a car But we'll be there with time to spare and find our own way home
You might find the meaning in the barrel of a rifle If it's pointed at a bird or if it's pointed at your head But me I'd rather plant a tree that grows up tall for all to see Until I need a pencil then I'll chop it to the ground
At night falling down will it make a sound Should I even wonder what it'd say It's so hard to change yourself easier to tell someone else That everything is going to be ok
