One of these days...
I've always thought that I have seen in my own lifetime, an end into poverty, injustice
and the wars, but now I have learned to those things, it's gonna take a long, long time,
so there's one thing that we must always make sure.
(Chorus)
When, I was thinking of the president of the USA, my love the president was giving us
peace and equality, it makes me think of the president that I loved. The president should
tell good stuff about us right now.
