One Million- A Birdboy Jack Lee Number

One million people,

Standing in the sun,

Praying for a miracle

Hoping for the one.

Wanting something better than

The lives they have today

Wondering if greed and fear

Will someday go away.

You won’t get there with just a dream

You gotta fight, you gotta scream

You gotta work, you gotta shout

Don’t let yourself cave in to doubt

Don’t close your eyes, don’t close your heart

You’ve got to finish what you start

If everybody does this too

We might make all our dreams come true

One million warheads

Waiting for the call

Waiting for the button press

That burns us one and all

Why’d we think deterrence

Is the answer to our pain?

Can’t we build a better world

Free of atomic rain?

[Chorus]

One million dollars

Can buy a lot of things

Mansions, cars and swimming pools

And shiny diamond rings

But can’t it also buy a meal

For everyone on earth?

Can’t we put aside our greed

And realize what we’re worth?

[Chorus]
