Songs: Today's society

Mamas sad and Daddy's mad

Baby just keeps crying

Lost a job can't find another

What's the use in trying




Bill collectors calling

Screaming about the money

Grandmas dreaming of Florida

Where the days are bright and sunny




Won't somebody

Come and take me away

To the land of tomorrow

Where there's no yesterday

Won't somebody

Come far away with me

Search for our purpose

And embrace our destiny




Just got home I'm all alone

News comes on at five

Plane went down in Georgiatown

Nobody survived




Breaking story once again

A shooting at a school

Fifteen kids are dead right now

Cause one kid wasn't cool




Won't somebody

Come and take me away

To the land of tomorrow

Where there's no yesterday

Won't somebody

Come far away with me

Search for our purpose

And embrace our destiny




There's flooding in the east

There's drought out in the west

Wonder if were gonna pass

Mother Natures test




Our buildings and our roads

Are smothering the earth

How long can you hold your breath

Until you have to burst




Won't somebody

Come and take me away

To the land of tomorrow

Where there's no yesterday

Won't somebody

Come far away with me

Search for our purpose

And embrace our destiny

Well maybe I'm running

Away from the world

Its burdens are too hard to bear

For this fragile little girl




I can't live in today

I'll be consumed by its pain

Gotta live in the future

So I won't go insane




Won't somebody

Come and take me away

To the land of tomorrow

Where there's no yesterday

Won't somebody

Come far away with me

Search for our purpose

And embrace our destiny




Won't somebody

Won't somebody

Won't somebody

Please take me away

    by Steven Spad

    how did it get so plain
    that you'd rather live for personal gain
    throwing away salvation
    have you no appreciation
    for what it
