Today No News-Shakra

Today no news, no child abuse Today no news, no child abuse No hurricane and no great deluge Today no dearth, the sun shines down on mother earth I await the day everything takes a break Twenty-four hours just for our sake Everywhere all newsmen would be so confused 'Cause there's no news item that they could use Today no news, no child abuse No hurricane and no great deluge Today no dearth, the sun shines down on mother earth Today no fight, no national pride Just harmony, our destiny One day of hope, one day of endless liberty Nobody's dying, no one's in need Statesmen shut up! No one takes the lead Sheiks paying for a round of oil with zest Believers shaking hands from east to west No children screaming, no deadly drought No more pretences for the crowd Just smiling faces, and ease of mind A day devoted to mankind No one who lies, no one who cheats No one who tries to take the lead Just harmony, our destiny One day of hope, one day for free
