The world is precious, a gift to you and me
  I suggest we treat her right, with love and dignity
    Everybody's looking for some peace of mind
  If you seek the truth then you will surely find
  Everybody wants to have global peace
  Whilst the press of a button can shake the world to its knees
    [Chorus:]
  Can you hear what I'm saying, can you hear what I'm saying
    Those who say might is right, I beg to disagree
  I say we all unite and redirect our destiny
    Everybody's looking for a quick solution
  Our longs are choking from breating in air polution
  I say put down your guns and stop the revolution
  And say this time we make a restitution
    [Repeat chorus]
    [Repeat chorus two times]
    Can you hear me now, I am calling right out for you
  (Can you hear me calling out to you, can you hear me calling out to you)
    There's so much starvation, so much say untruth
  So much prejudice, there's so much liquidation - oh how long, how long
    Can you hear what I'm saying
    Africa, America, Eurasia, Latin Africa
