World

Five For Fighting · Two Lights [2006]

Got a package full of wishes

A time machine, a magic wand

A globe made out of gold



No instructions or commandments

Laws of gravity or

Indecisions to uphold



Printed on the box I see:

"A.C.M.E.'s Build-A-World-To-Be"

Take a chance, grab a piece

Help me to believe it



What kind of world do you want?

Think anything

Let's start at the start

Build a masterpiece

Be careful what you wish for

History starts now



Should there be people or peoples?

Money, funny pedestals for fools who never pay?

Raise your army, choose your steeple

Don't be shy, the satellites can look the other way



Lose the earthquakes, keep the faults

Fill the oceans without the salt

Let every man own his own hand

Can you dig it, baby?



What kind of world do you want?

Think anything

Let's start at the start

Build a masterpiece

Be careful what you wish for

History starts now



Sunlight's on the bridge

Sunlight's on the way

Tomorrow's calling

There's more to this than love



What kind of world do you want?

What kind of world do you want?



What kind of world do you want?

Think anything

Let's start at the start

Build a masterpiece, yeah



History starts now

Starts now



Be careful what you wish for



Start now

Now
