Lyrics[]

On my radio trouble gets the triple play
All throughout the world there's no good news today
Far and wide there are bad developments
The wake up call has come too late to repent
People preaching, people shirking the blame
The world is just a debt that's too big to repay
And if you think salvation's on it's way
Well you'd better get down on your knees and pray

Chorus:
I hope this world can keep it together
(If we let things slide, we'll lose the tether)
I hope this world can keep it together
(There's got to be a way we can)
Can keep it together, yeah

A ghetto freight train with no name or destination
Out of control, on a track not fit to roll on
All things come to those who wait, at least that's what we're told
Tell that to somebody when they're standing in the cold
Acid rain has gone and rinsed the colour out the lies
We wash our hands in what we threw away last night

Repeat chorus

Do ya really hope the world can keep it together
Well pull ya weight cos we're in for stormy weather
Voice your opinions silence is fear
Fear is a mind killer, we don't need a fortune teller
To see what's happenin' where your action lead to
True as a factual account of history
And no amount of mystery, coverups, rewrites or
Politics is gonna make ya lisss
Listen up take your stand for mankind
Don't be blind to the facts stay on track
Tired of petty wartime jazz, and oil spills
We are here to speak out cos we had our fill
I always try my best not to lose my cool
It gets hard when ya live on a ship of fools
Understand what I'm puttin' across
Hope ya get my drift

And if you think salvation's on its way
Well you'd better get down on your knees and pray

Repeat Chorus
