Lyrics
Kool, you know, I've been thinking
What do we need to make things better in the world today?
You know, that's a beautiful thought
We need peace, we need unity
We need peace for you and me
You know, because we are so blind
We can't see, we cannot see the creator of a tree
The creator of a bee, the creator of you and me
What are you doing to make things better?
Well, you see, we are scientists of sound
We're mathematically putting it down
And you know we're trying to find the key to the light
What do you mean by the key to the light?
Well, brother you see, from the darkness came the light
We need that light to find peace and unity
Because there's so much illusion and confusion
So much destruction, so much corruption
What could I do?
Well, yo, that's why we have to save the children
Because you're gonna play a very important part
So you must continue to strive and bring this peace and unity
Because there's only way we can find heaven
Is through peace and unity
Would that be heaven?
Yes, you know, that would be heaven at once
Heaven at once, ooh heaven
Heaven at once, ooh heaven
Heaven at once
Farewell
I'm in heaven
Ooh heaven, heaven at once
Yes, it would be heaven at once
