This morning I turned on TV
The same story upset me

And I stared at the screen a while
Hopin’ she will be alright

Wonder the reason why

Wonder why, tell me why

The Bad things go on for days
Wonder how, how can I
Take all violence away


Why’s she unlike me

While I’m havin’bread with coffee
She’s havin’great fears

She’s stopped lovin’sunny days
She’s learned how to hate

She knows when she screams in pain
No one ever looks her way
Wonder the reason why

Really wonder why, tell me why
The Bad things go on for days
Wonder how, how can I
Take all violence away

Wonder the reason
Really wonder why, like she wonders
Why’s she unlike others
Wonder how, how can I
Take all violence away

When will her morning come?
When will she see?
When will she start to enjoy life
And this wonderful world?
