"Flying high in the friendly sky"

Flying high in the friendly sky
Flying high without ever leavin' the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
Oh Lord, and have laid their bodies down
Yeah-yeah, oh yeah
I go the place where danger awaits me
Oh Lord
And it's bound to forsake me (ooh Lord)
So stupid minded
I can't help it
Oh, so stupid minded
But I go crazy when I can't find it
In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend (oh Lord)
But soon the night will bring the pains
The pain, oh the pain

Flying high in the friendly sky, oh Lord
Without ever leaving the ground
Yeah-yeah
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble baby
Nobody really understands, no no (help me, somebody)
And I go to the place where good feelin' awaits me
Self-destruction's in my hand
Oh Lord, so stupid minded (can you help me? Can you help?)
Oh Lord, I go crazy when I can't find it (help me)
Well I know, I'm hooked, my friend (got to help me)
To the boy who makes slaves out of men (got to help me)
Oh-oh believe me
Flying high in a friendly sky
Oh baby, flyin' high
Ooh-hoo
Ooh-hoo
Flyin' high, in a friendly sky


"Save the children"

I just want to ask a question:
Who really cares, to save a world in despair?
Who really cares? (Ohhh)
There'll come a time (There'll come a time)
When the world won't be singing (When the world won't be singing)
Flowers won't grow (Flowers won't grow, no)
Bells won't be ringin' (The bells won't be ringin')
Who really cares? (Who really cares?)
Who's willing to try? (Who is willin' to try?)
To save the world (To save the world)
That's destined to die (That is destined to die)
When I look at the world (When I look at the world)
It fills me with sorrow (It fills me with sorrow)
Little children today (Children today)
Are really gonna suffer tomorrow (Really suffer tomorrow)
(Oh!) What a shame (What a shame)
Such a bad way to live (Such a bad way to live)
Oh, who is to blame? (Who is to blame?)
We can't stop living (When we can't stop living)
(Ohhh!) Live, (Live)
(Live for life) Live for life
(But let live everybody)
Live life for the children (Live life for the children!)
(Oh, for the Children!)
You see, let's... (Oh!) let's save the children (Oh)
Let's...let's save all the children
(Save the babies! Save the babies!)
(And if you want to love, you got to save the babies!)
(Oh you've got the feeling, you've got the feeling)
(You will save the babies! All of the children!)

But who really cares?
Who's willing to try? Yeah
To save our world, yeah
To save our sweet world
To save a world that is destined to die
Oh-oh-oh, la la la, la la la, la la la
Oh-oh, oh, dig it everybody


"God Is My Friend"

Oh, don't go and talk about my Father (talk about my Father)
God is my friend
Jesus is my friend (God is my friend)
He made this world for us to live in (He made this world)
And gave us everything (Lord gave us everything)
And all He asks of us (peace) /
Is we give each other love
Oh yeah

Don't go and talk about my Father (don't talk about him no, no, no)
'Cause God is my friend
Jesus is my friend (God is my friend)
He loves us whether or not we know it (Jesus loves us, oh yeah)
And He'll forgive all our sins, oh yeah (He'll forgive our sins)
And all He asks of us, oh yeah, is we give each other love
Oh yeah

Love your mother (she bore you)
Love your father (he works for you)
Love your sister (she's good to you)
Love your brother (love your brotHer)
Don't go and talk about my Father (talk about, He's good to us)
God is my friend
Jesus is my friend (God is my friend)
And when we call in Him for mercy, (mercy Father)
He'll be merciful, my friend, oh yeah, ooh
(Oh, yes He will)
All He asks of us, I know
Is we give each other love, oh yeah


"Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)

Woah, ah, mercy, mercy me
Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)
Where did all the blue skies go?
Poison is the wind that blows
From the north and south and east

Woah mercy, mercy me, yeah
Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury

Oh Jesus, yeah, mercy, mercy me, ah
Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)
Radiation underground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying

Hey, mercy, mercy me, oh
Hey, things ain't what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land?
How much more abuse from man can she stand?

Oh, na, na, na
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hey, ooh, woo
