Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Would Dylan be just a poet?
Would Bono ever know it without those songs?
Mmm
Would Marley be just a stoner?
Johnny Cash just be a loner without those songs?
Mmm
Would Buddy Holly have disappeared?
Or would Lennon still be here without those songs?
[Verse 2]
Yeah yeah, yeah
What happened in their lives?
What happened in their hearts?
To make them wanna write the words
Gonna tear this world apart
[Verse 3]
The beauty of their lives
Is when they're dead and gone
The world still sings along
When anything went right
When anything went wrong
They put it in a song
[Verse 4]
Would Elvis be just a look?
Or The Rolling Stones be stuck without those songs?
Mmm
Would Sinatra be just a gangster?
Or would Jackson be just a dancer without those songs?
Yeah yeah
Would Madonna be just a face?
Or Nirvana be just a place without those songs?
Yeah yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
What happened in their lives?
What happened in their hearts?
To make them wanna write the words
Gonna tear this world apart
[Verse 6]
The beauty of their lives
Is when they're dead and gone
The world still sings along
When anything went right
When anything went wrong
They put it in a song, yeah
[Verse 7]
When anything went right
When anything went wrong
They put it in a song
[Verse 8]
Oh, who would make us see?
And where would we all be
Without those songs?
Without those songs?
