Do What You Can by The Fixx Lyrics
There is only
One chance for us all
If we could only
Make sense of it all
Try to bring peace on Earth
(And to bury aware me) (?)
Try to bring peace on Earth
Or we aren't worth anything
Try to bring peace on Earth
For peace of mind
If there's no peace on Earth
Then the blame lies at our feet
There's no peace on Earth
No virtues
I see only pride
Please do what you can
When you see wrong
Try to mend it
Do what you can
Show them what it means
To be human
Show them how it feels to care
If we could only
Make sense of it all
And in an effort for peace
It's our birthright
In an effort for peace
For future life
In an effort for peace
Just to say goodnight
Please do what you can
When you see wrong
Try to mend it
A little is a lot
Show them what it means
To be human
Show them how it feels to care
Ooh, do what you can
Do it
Not what we are
It's what do
By what we do
We shall be remembered
Live by the sword
Die by the sword
We take the work
Around the world
We're all to blame
We're all the same
Invent false truths
And mirror lies
You see through me
I see through you
But underneath
You're just like me
Not what we are
It's what do
By what we do
We shall be remembered
Live by the sword
Die by the sword
We take the work
Around the world
One chance for us all
If we could only
Make sense of it all
Try to bring peace on Earth
(And to bury aware me) (?)
Try to bring peace on Earth
Or we aren't worth anything
Try to bring peace on Earth
For peace of mind
If there's no peace on Earth
Then the blame lies at our feet
There's no peace on Earth
No virtues
I see only pride
Please do what you can
When you see wrong
Try to mend it
Do what you can
Show them what it means
To be human
Show them how it feels to care
If we could only
Make sense of it all
And in an effort for peace
It's our birthright
In an effort for peace
For future life
In an effort for peace
Just to say goodnight
Please do what you can
When you see wrong
Try to mend it
A little is a lot
Show them what it means
To be human
Show them how it feels to care
Ooh, do what you can
Do it
Not what we are
It's what do
By what we do
We shall be remembered
Live by the sword
Die by the sword
We take the work
Around the world
We're all to blame
We're all the same
Invent false truths
And mirror lies
You see through me
I see through you
But underneath
You're just like me
Not what we are
It's what do
By what we do
We shall be remembered
Live by the sword
Die by the sword
We take the work
Around the world
