Beverley Knight When You Gonna Learn song lyrics

Have you heard the news today

People right across the world

Are pledging they will play the game

Victims of a modern world

Circumstance has brought us here

Armageddon's come too near

Too too near now

Now foresight is the only key

To save our children's destiny

The consequences are so grave

So so grave now

The hypocrites we are their slaves

So my friend to stop the end

On each other we depend oh we depend

Mountain high and river deep

We gotta stop it going on

We gotta wake this world up from its sleep

Oh people, stop it going on

Oh yeah

Have you heard the news today

Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant

Now don't talk about quantity

'Cause there's no fish left in the sea

Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was

So you better play it nature's way

Or she will take it all away

And don't try tell me you know more than her about right or wrong

Oh you've upset the balance man

Done the only thing you can

Now my life is in your hands

In your hands, it's in your hands

Mountain high and river deep yes

We gotta stop it going on

We gotta wake this world up from its sleep, yeah people

We gotta stop it going on

Mountain high and river deep

We gotta stop it going on, yes we do

We gotta wake this world up from its sleep

Oh people, we gotta stop it going on

Oh when you gonna learn stop it going on

When you gonna learn stop it going on

When you gonna learn stop it going on

When you gonna learn stop it going on
