Sunday morning, I heard the preacher say Thou shall not kill I don't wanna hear nothing else about killing And that it's God's will 'Cause our children are watching us They put their trust in us They're gonna be like us So let's learn from our history And do it differently [Chorus] I hope for more love, more joy and laughter I hope we'll have more than we'll ever need I hope we'll have more 'happy ever after' I hope we can all live more fearlessly And we can lose all the pain and misery I hope, I hope Oh, Rosie; her man - he gets too rough That's all she can say: is he's a good man He don't mean no harm He was just brought up that way But our children are watching us They put their trust in us They're gonna be like us It's okay for us to disagree We can work it out lovingly [Chorus] There must be a way to change what's going on No, I don't have all the answers [Chorus] I hope, I hope, I hope
