I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing
It's gonna be about sunshine and praise every living thing
It's gonna be about love the one thing the world needs a lot more of
I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing

People sit around with their face in a frown and they gripe about the way things are
They're happy to receive but they hardly ever give
Now I'm so tired of complaining so in my time remaining
I'm gonna do my part to make the world a better place to live (go)

I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing
It's gonna be about sunshine and praise every living thing
It's gonna be about love the one thing the world needs a lot more of
I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing

Your government needs teenage blood and oil to keep the nation strong
And the old time religion gets 'em every day
Now we need agitatin' and more black flags waving
And there's no better time to start than today

I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing
It's gonna be about sunshine and praise every living thing
It's gonna be about love the one thing the world needs a lot more of
I'm gonna write a song the whole wide world can sing

I'm gonna cover a song some redneck fascist wrote
Toby Keith is a Nazi, George Bush is a fucking joke
How many more will die for the word of god, for the oil you buy
I'm gonna cover a song the whole wide world can sing
The whole wide world can sing
The whole wide world can sing
Aaa-hoooo
