Al Jarreau - Tomorrow Today
Chant:
We need a think tank I'm thinking
We need a think tank I'm thinking
Verse 1:
With tender smile, we bless a child
with love and light, and patron saint.
Don't let them cry, that we denied
tomorrow's child today.
Verse 2:
The hurt, the need, to heal, to feed
They linger near the marketplace.
Will we deny, or compromise
tomorrow's child today?
Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama Papa thinkin' 'bout tomorrow today
Verse 3:
As rivers roar, the eagles soar
this ancient lore of rightful place.
Do we ignore, or save them for
Tomorrow's child today?
Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-ay
Mama Papa thinkin' 'bout:
Chorus:
Tomorrow today---Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Tomorrow today---Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Verse: Instrumental
Pre-chorus:
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Mama loves mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay
Celebrate and think about:
Chorus:
Tomorrow Today - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Tomorrow Today - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Thinkin' about the homeless - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Thinkin' about the joblessness - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Thinkin' about the children - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
Thinkin' about the forest, yes - Is anybody thinkin' 'bout
