So Much Trouble in the World Lyrics
[Intro]
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
[Verse 1]
Bless my eyes this morning
Jah sun is on the rise once again
The way earthly thing's are going
Anything can happen
You see men sailing on their ego trip
Blast off on their spaceship
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me
[Verse 2]
So much trouble in the world;
So much trouble in the world
All you got to do: give a little (give a little)
Give a little (give a little), give a little (give a little)!
One more time, ye-ah! (give a little) Ye-ah! (give a little)
Ye-ah! (give a little) Yeah!
[Verse 3]
So you think you've found the solution
But it's just another illusion!
(So before you check out this tide)
Don't leave another cornerstone
Standing there behind, eh-eh-eh-eh!
We've got to face the day
(Ooh) Ooh-wee, come what may
We the street people talking
Yeah, we the people struggling
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
[Verse 1]
Bless my eyes this morning
Jah sun is on the rise once again
The way earthly thing's are going
Anything can happen
You see men sailing on their ego trip
Blast off on their spaceship
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me
[Verse 2]
So much trouble in the world;
So much trouble in the world
All you got to do: give a little (give a little)
Give a little (give a little), give a little (give a little)!
One more time, ye-ah! (give a little) Ye-ah! (give a little)
Ye-ah! (give a little) Yeah!
[Verse 3]
So you think you've found the solution
But it's just another illusion!
(So before you check out this tide)
Don't leave another cornerstone
Standing there behind, eh-eh-eh-eh!
We've got to face the day
(Ooh) Ooh-wee, come what may
We the street people talking
Yeah, we the people struggling
[Verse 4]
Now they sitting on a time bomb; (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
Now I know the time has come: (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
What goes on up is coming on down, (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
Goes around and comes around. (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
[Outro]
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
There is so much trouble (so much trouble in the world)
There is so much trouble
There is so much trouble (so much in the world)
There is so much trouble
There is so much trouble in the world (so much trouble in the world)
There is (so much in the world)
(So much trouble in the world)
Now they sitting on a time bomb; (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
Now I know the time has come: (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
What goes on up is coming on down, (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
Goes around and comes around. (Bomb-bomb-bomb! Bomb-bomb-bomb!)
[Outro]
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
There is so much trouble (so much trouble in the world)
There is so much trouble
There is so much trouble (so much in the world)
There is so much trouble
There is so much trouble in the world (so much trouble in the world)
There is (so much in the world)
(So much trouble in the world)
