The only way to start is to start now. . Chorus. When are we gonna stand up as people. Realise that as people we're all equal. We don't want no world war sequel. For the love of god think of the people. Children always learn by what they see. So we gotta practice what we preach. Don't you know if thats the game of life. We refuse when we chose to fight. . If we can find a way to work things out. The only way to start is to start now. . Chorus. When are we gonna stand up as people. Realise that as people we're all equal. We don't want no world war sequel. For the love of god think of the people. I pray before I sleep at night. That I wake to find a clear blue sky. . Chorus. When are we gonna stand up as people. Realise that as people we're all equal. We don't want no world war sequel. For the love of god think of the people. When are we gonna stand up as people. Realise that as people we're all equal. We don't want no world war sequel. For the love of god think of the people
