World by Five for Fighting (with lyrics)

Got a package full of wishes
A time machine, a magic wand
A globe made out of gold
No instructions or commandments,
Laws of gravity or indecision to uphold
Printed on the box I see: ACME's Build a World to Be.
Take a chance, grab a piece
Help me to believe it

What kind of world do you want
Think anything
Lets start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now

Should there be people or peoples
Money, funny pedestals
For fools who never pay
Raise your army, choose your steeple
Dont be shy, the satellites can look the other way
Lose the earthquakes, keep the faults
Fill the oceans without the salt
Let every man own his own hand.
Can you dig it baby?

What kind of world do you want
Think anything
Lets start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now

Sunlights on the bridge
Sunlights on the way
Tomorrows calling
Theres more to this than love

What kind of world do you want
Think anything
Let's start at the start
Build a masterpiece
History starts now
Starts now
Be careful what you wish for

Start now
Now...

who gave me a negative point lol? that was mean considering that i never said anything against the video.

this song is beautiful.

[ClaudiaMontana8]

Don't know Mickey ... but I appreciate your comments :) It is a great song ... sad it was commercialized in Sears commercials :(  It has a much deeper meaning than to have been used in such a way.

naked ladie!!!!

[ClaudiaMontana8]

The "naked ladie" is representative of Eve from the book series by C.S. Lewis.  Specifically Perelandra, the second in his sci-fi trilogy which starts out with Out of the Silent Planet and ends with That Hideous Strength ... great reading and for a more mature audience than his Narnia series of 7 books which includes the Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian, etc. which he wrote for his grandchildren. I hope someone puts his Perelandra to film someday :)
