I Wonder What Would Happen to this World

Oh well I wonder

Yes I wonder

What would happen

What would happen to this world

Well I wonder what would happen to this world

Now if a man tried

To take his time on Earth

And prove before he died

What one man's life could be worth

Well I wonder what would happen to this world

And if a woman

She used a life TIME

As something more than

Some man's servant mother wife time

Well I wonder what would happen to this world

Oh well I wonder

Yes I wonder

Oh yes I wonder

'Bout what would happen

What would happen to this world

Well I wonder what would happen to this world

As I look around us

There's such strange things

There's muggers and there's jugglers

And we are led by clowns

If an answer ever found us

Would we change things

Or are we just a people

Rotten ready for the ground

And if our future

Lies on the final line

Are we brave enough

To see the signals and the signs

I wonder what would happen to this world

We see the people

We see them marchin' down

Do we join the parade

Or do we try and turn around

Well I wonder what would happen to this world

Disciple children walk the streets

Selling books and flowers

Can they be last ones

With a semblance of a dream

If we say that no one's out there

And we say we're goin' nowhere

And we avoid the question

Is this all that it means?

Oh if a man tried

To take his time on earth

And prove before he died

What one man's life could be worth
