Today I saw a familiar face across a city street,
|
sitting in the doorway with a blanket round his feet.
|
At first I didn't place him the way you often do,
|
but the last time I'd seen him he sat next to me at school.
|
|
Where will we be in the year 2000,
|
when there's no more hunger and there's no more war?
|
We're standing on the threshold of the year 2000,
|
the time has come we've had enough we won't take anymore.
|
|
We're different from our parents they'll never understand.
|
We won't be fooled the way they were, the future's in our hands.
|
Remember how we promised as we said good-bye to school:
|
Like all good friends we'll meet again, I'll tell you what we'll do.
|
|
We'll meet again in the year 2000?
|
There'll be no more hunger, there'll be no more war.
|
New Year's day in the year 2000,
|
the time has come we've had enough we won't take anymore.
|
|
Please don't take my word for it,
|
it's clear for all to see.
|
The world will be a better place
|
in the twenty-first century.
|
|
Where will we be in the year 2000?
|
There'll be no more hunger, there'll be no more war.
