The World is out of control money and crime instead of love and soul
No more world war but we can't call it peace
If we don't learn to live... Live becomes a disease… a disease

I heard a tired man say
History will teach us nothing
And he's so right
If we don't learn from our mistakes
If we don't learn to live
Live becomes a disease… a disease

Refrain:

Future is the forgotten past
That keeps coming back if you live too fast
History repeats itself
What's happening to this world?

The brown flood is rising again
Fear and Hate divide us again
Against Ourselves
The agression starts to rise
The price of forgetting we pay

To think our minds are human clay
Soft and squirming weak and small
Bleak of spirit bleak of mind
That's what you are and this will be your downfall

It's not too late, it's still time
You are young, their ideas are old
To feel loved and respected
It's what they need, don't reject 'em now

Your song's called youth you are the living proof
Right On my friends
don't let anyone discourage you
What you need to do it ain't easy
Drain the brown flood with respect and trust
