I Have A Dream

I have a dream Where a white woman beats her black husband in a house with thin walls While their polka dotted child pretends to sleep in the next room And the boy sings through his tears "All we need is love, do do do do doo" I have a dream Where a nameless man in a room full of flashing lights stares at a screen He inputs a series of commands And lets out a rebel yell as his finger descends toward the final key Millions of miles away an entire city stands in silence As the bomb descends on them, all but hearing that rebel yell Then a single voice cuts through and reaches out to their ears, Singing "All we need is love, do do do do doo, All we need is LOVE, do do do do doo" I have a dream Where I hear people all around me screaming "Hail ze fuhrer!" I open my eyes to see a nation of faceless robots With the words "MONEY IS POWER" tattooed on all of their chests They march off to wage war on a country called terrorism And as I get swept away I sing "All we need is love, do do do do doo, all we need is love, do do do do doo, All we need is love.... love" I have a dream Where a polka dotted boy comes home every day To a screaming house with thin walls He goes straight to his room and stays up late In the hopes that it will come that night Suddenly he hears it, sweet silence He sings to himself "All we need is love, do do do do doo, all we need is love, do do do do doo All we need is love, love. Love is all we need." And that single moment will sustain his hope for months to come Because for a polka dotted child in a house with thin wall, silence is the sound of love
