What The World Needs Now Is Love by Tom Clay Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2015

Man: What is segration?
Kid: I don't know what segration is
Man: What is bigotry?
Kid: I don't know what bigotry is
Man: What does hatred mean?
Kid: I don't know what that is
Man: What is prejudice?
Kid: Mmm, I think that is when someone is sick

[Military clip/What The World Needs Now singing in the background.]
Anybody here seen my old friend John
Can you tell me where he's gone

[John F. Kennedy shooting documentary]
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin
Can you tell me where he's gone
He freed lotta people
But it seems the good they die young

[Martin Luther King speech]
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby
Can you tell me where he's gone
[Robert Kennedy shooting documentary]
What the world needs now
Is love sweet love
No not for some
But for everyone

Man: What is segration?
Kid: I don't know what segration is
Man: What is bigotry?
Kid: I don't know what bigotry is
Man: What does hatred mean?
Kid: I don't know what that is
Man: What is prejudice?
Kid: Mmm, I think that is when someone is sick
