If you want the world to be better

   Make it better, make it better

If you want the world to be good

   Make it good, make it good

We all want some of the same things

Like prosperity for our families and a peaceful neighborhood


If you want the world to be loving

   Love somebody, love somebody

If you want the world to be kind

   Make a friend, make a friend

We all want some of the same things

Like some time to bond with the ones we love and a place that’s safe to live   


We’re standing on common ground

I want what you want and you want what I want, 

now let’s all make a joyful sound

We are more like each other - ninety nine point ninety nine percent the same

Nine - nine - point - nine - nine percent - we're almost 1



(Repeat all)



I see you clearly

You are like me

We’re almost 1

 

Ninety nine point ninety nine per-

cent the same



Give Love



Es bueno dar amor

Es bueno dar amor

Es bueno dar amor

It’s a good thing to give love


It’s a good thing to give love

It’s a good thing to give love 

Life becomes more, life becomes better

When I am more of a giver than a getter

It’s a good thing to give love



Every day there’s an invitation

Something happens in my location

It will cause me to ask this question,

“Am I gonna be a friend?”

Will I only think about myself or,

Have I learned that love is what I’m here for?

We make the world one by the fences we mend.



Es bueno dar amor

Es bueno dar amor

La vida se vuelve más, se vuelve mejor

Cuando soy más dador que el receptor

It's a good thing to give love



Puedes pensar que no tienes mucho

Puedes pensar que eres pequeño

Pero tienes algo valioso que puede ayudar

Te conviertes en lo mejor de ti

cuando entregas tu corazón, sí

Te volverás más cuando das amor.



It’s a good thing to give love

It’s a good thing to give love 

Life becomes more, life becomes better

When I am more of a giver than a getter

It’s a good thing to give love

Today is mine  (Ana ba’aool) انا بقول 


My words are like lightning - they 

flash and you get a little glimpse of me

The future is brightening - that’s the 

power in the words “I can be”

I will tell everyone and myself too

I am here for the good that I can do

I will say so, it will be true

This day is mine


I will learn today

I will be the greatest me that I can be today
