The World Today Lyrics - Singles - Mike Pinder

I'm feeling sorry for the world today 

They're making food the corporation way 

Use the grain to fatten up the beef 

They're starving children in the third world streets 

The sun won't shine and the rain won't rain 

Can't grow the gruels if we break the chain 

We're gonna have to fix this bitter cup 

North wind's a blowing and the sand storm's up 

Rising prices, energy crisis 

We never get to make headway 

Politicians, contradictions 

Always seem to lead us astray 

So lift yourself up to your inner star 

Your love's news no matter who you are 

There's a choice, we have to choose 

We hear a voice, do you hear the news 

People shining, dark age declining 

Now the truth can set us free 

Inner visions, not superstitions 

Will bring peace and harmony 

Can you see 

To have love we have to give away 

To have life we have to live each day 

Turn a page and walk out of the dark 

Into the light, see a new age start 

Children shining, dark age declining 

Now the truth can set us free 

Inner visions, not superstitions 

Will bring peace and harmony 

Can you see 

I'm feeling happy for the earth today 

She's gonna make it in her own way 

A solar system full of love and grace 

Her evolution to a shining place 

Shining place 

Human race 

Shining 

Shining
