Right Now
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Maybe it抯 the movies, maybe it抯 the books
Maybe it抯 the government and all the other crooks
Maybe it抯 the drugs, maybe it抯 the parents
Maybe it抯 the gangs, or the colors that we抮e
wearin'
Maybe it抯 the high schools, maybe it抯 the teachers
Tattoos, pipe bombs underneath the bleachers
Maybe it抯 the music, maybe it抯 the crack
Maybe it抯 the bible, or could it be the lack
Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another, right now...right now
Okay, maybe it抯 the papers, maybe it抯 the family
Maybe it抯 the internet, radio, TV
Maybe it抯 the president, maybe it抯 the last one
Maybe it抯 the one before that
Maybe it抯 the athletes, maybe it抯 the dads
Maybe it抯 the sports fans, agents, fads
Maybe it抯 the homeless, aliens, immigrants
Maybe it抯 life, don抰 tell me that it抯 imminent
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
You gotta love one another
Maybe it抯 the fallout, maybe it抯 the ozone
Maybe it抯 the chemicals, the radiation, cell phones
Maybe it抯 the magazines, maybe it the next page
Lotteries, fast food, bad news, road rage
Maybe it the unions, big business
Maybe it抯 the KKK and the skinheads
Maybe it抯 the daughters, maybe it抯 the sons
Maybe it抯 the brothers of the mothers or the guns
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
(You know, if we don抰 talk about it
It ain抰 gonna get better)
We gotta love one another
(So, whadda say, let抯 talk)
Maybe it抯 the parks, maybe it抯 the sex
Maybe it抯 the talk shows, maybe it抯 a reflex
Maybe it抯 the taxes, maybe it抯 the system
Judges, lawyers, prisons
Maybe it抯 the Catholics, maybe it抯 the Protestants
Maybe it抯 the addicts, and the hippies and
communists
Maybe it抯 a fashion, maybe it抯 a trend
Maybe it抯 the future... maybe it抯 the end
