The World May End Tomorrow
(sounds of a baby crying--waaaaaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaa waaaaaaa awaaaa)....
The world that we live in now is filled with so much corruption;
I believe today that we've on the eve of our own destruction;
What can I do, what shall I choose;
How much will I lose;
tossing to and for;
Nowhere to live no where to go;
This world is beautiful as you see there's no more hope for you or for me, you see;
the world may end today
but I also know that it may end tomorrow, tomorrow...
the world will end tomorrow;
the world will end tomorrow;
wooh ooh ooh
wooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
Storms and rains;
Hurts, hunger, and pains;
All of these exchanges;
why must we hang;
Evilness prioritized, prejudice;
All of this makes me sick;
Spiritual ill gains;
People afraid of dying;
Grown men crying;
wooh ooh ooh
wooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
The world will end tomorrow;
wooh ooh ooh;
The world will end tomorrow
Dropping of bombs, Beatles love songs;
Mans right, someone says that God is wrong;
I'm not the one with the knife;
Why can't little black boys in Georgia fly their kites;
This isn't right;
That ain't white;
Why must I relax;
It isn't black;
I'm your brother;
Even though we've gotten two different mothers;
wooh ooh ooh
wooh ooh ooh
The world will end tomorrow;
wooh ooh ooh;
The world will end tomorrow;
Storms and rains;
Hurts, hungry and pains;
All of these exchange;
Why must we hang;
What can I do what shall i choose;
How much will I lose;
Tossing to and fro;
Nowhere to live nor to go.;
This world is beautiful as you see;
There's no more hope for you or me;
You see
The world will end tomorrow
(From the 1974 LP/cassette by James Edward Lee (The World Will End Tomorrow) 7/1974
