Lyrics

The world is just a great big onion And pain and fear are the spices that make you cry (Oh baby) Oh, and the only way to get rid of this great big onion Is to plant love seeds until it dies, uh-huh Hey world! We got a great big job to do Yeah, we need you And everybody who loves through Oh, Don't you know we've got to clean up this place And reach far high and oh yeah (Yes we do now) We gotta be headstrong about righting the wrong And make a lot more happy souls oh, ohh (oh baby) The world is just a great big onion And I don't care, it's the face people like to wear (Yes it is now) And the only way to get rid of this great big onion Every single soul's got to do their share Tell 'em bout it, baby! (woo) So come on, let's knock on every door (woo) Tell them love is the answer Whether they're rich or poor, oh yeah Now we don't care what you do How you look, or your status claim, baby No, no, because "brothers & sisters" from now on is gonna be everyone's name, oh-oh The world is just a great big onion And pain & fear are the spices that make you cry (Yes it is) And the only way to get rid of this great big onion Is to plant love seeds Now everybody got to plant love seeds Come on and plant love seeds Until it dies The world is just a great big onion
