(Shel Silverstein)

Turn on the world, give them a taste of how free
your love can be

Turn on the world, you don't wanna waste all your
warmth on me

You say you've got wings, teach them to fly

Teach them to love and not question why

Teach them to live and then just watch them die

As you turn on the world

Turn on the world, I'm just one man and that
ain't enough for you

Turn on the world, you know you can girl, it
won't be too tough for you

Reach for your star, ride the highway

Pick up the souls that wait to be saved

All you can give me you already gave

Now go turn on the world

But where my mind goes now, is no longer your
concern

You're hearing new voices now

And I'm just a place to hide

You've got so many choices now

You don't know where to turn, turn, turn

Turn on the world

Turn on the world, live life to the hilt, march
to your own sweet tune

Turn on the world, don't stop for the guilt
'cause it might ruin your afternoon

You say I should smile, stand and be strong

'Cause we had our time, and we sang our song

Don't worry about me babe just run along

And go turn on the world

Oh show them how real your love can be

Turn on the world

You don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste

Don't wanna waste an hour on me

You say you've got wings, teach them to fly

Teach them to love and not question why

Teach them to live and then just watch them die

As you turn on the world

Go now
