Radical for Love

Well well well chica chica ya got no fancy shoes for your feet
Can't pay your bills to the man but you've got enough to eat
And you've got love in your soul
And peace is your goal and
You know real truth and beauty can't be bought or sold

I don't think much about the priorities of our society
All our actions seem to lead us to war and violence and suffering
And if you're crying for peace and reason
You're a hippie or a radical but tell me what's so radical about love?
What's radical about loving the earth?
What's radical about knowing your worth?
What's radical about wanting a better day - a better way - happiness?

Jesus was a radical
Buddha was a radical
Martin Luther King was revolutionary
Bob Marley was a radical
Mother Theresa was a radical
John Lennon
the Dalai Lama
and Gandhi too
It's true

Make me a radical for love
I wanna be a radical for love
Make me a radical for love

I've got peace in my soul
Love is my goal
Make me a radical for love

PEACE
