Lyrics India.Arie – Better People
Text:
Yeah Yeah!
Yeah Yeah!
Verse 1:
I wish there was a video game
I wish there was a phone number
like 1-800-Save-Your-Brother
I’m thankful for the radio station
Not afraid to put the truth in rotation
there are skirts of information
That you can only get in conversation when…
Chorus:
Young People, who talk to
Old People, it would make us
Better People, all around…
(Yes it would)
And if Old People would talk to
Young People, it would make us
Better People, all around….
(Yes it would)
Verse 2:
We went from radio to TV
Now we’re going from LP to CD
Don’t be afraid
To try something new
I can help you with the brand new technology
Help me with the age old philosophy
Together there’s so much we can do when
Chorus:
Young People, who talk to
Better People, all around…
And if Old People would talk to
Young People, it would make us
Better People, all around….
They say that every
Generation gets worse
They call it a generational curse
These problems don’t just drop out the sky (yeah)
Listen to Mahatma Ghandi’s words
Be the change you want to see in the world
Start with yourself and healing will multiply
AAAAAAH, that’s what happens When..
Chorus:
Young People, who talk to
Old People, it would make us
Better People, all around…
If Old People would talk to
Young People, it would…..
Better People, all around….
If black people
Would talk to white people
It would make us
Better People
All Around….
If Republican people would
Talk to Democratic people
It would make us diplomatic people
laugh
All Around…..
