Chill Out
Dan Reed Network Lyrics

Babies fightin' before they can read
There is so much conflict in the world that even innocent children are caught up in it before they can even learn to read.

Old men cryin' you know they can see
Elderly people who have witnessed so much in their lifetime shed tears at the state of the world, because they understand what has been lost.

Military spending while children don't eat
It is absurd and unjust that governments allocate greater funds to their military budgets than to basic necessities such as food and water for their citizens.

I can't understand it makes no sense to me
The artist of the song cannot comprehend why there are such disparities and injustices in the world.

So I'm askin' everyone to check out my point of view
The singer wants others to see the world as they do, in the hopes that it will inspire change for the better.

It might be time for a new attitude
A shift in perspective and approach may be required to address the issues facing the world.

So take a look around you, there's somethin' you can do
The song encourages listeners to be proactive and to take action to improve the world around them.

Don't you think it's time we all chill out
In the face of so much negativity and conflict, the singer urges everyone to relax and take a step back from it all.

But there's some crazy people who'll mess up what we have
Despite the fact that there are many good things in the world, there are some individuals who will actively seek to disrupt and destroy them.

They're hungry for power, but I know we can stop 'em
The singer is hopeful that people can cooperate and work together to prevent the destructive actions of those who seek power.

Open our eyes, Take a walk in the sun
The song encourages people to be more aware and mindful of the world around them, and to take time to appreciate the beauty of nature.

Let's live together before it all falls
The singer believes that working together and building a harmonious community is crucial to preventing the collapse of society.

Now one more thing that I thought I might add
The singer has another thought to share on the matter at hand.

There's a lot of good times left that we can all have
Despite the many challenges facing the world, the singer believes that there is still joy and happiness to be found.

So let's think about the future and use a little sense
The song encourages listeners to consider the long-term implications of their choices and actions, and to prioritise common sense in their decision-making.

You can eat the whole pie, But it's better to share
The song reminds us that while we may be able to take everything for ourselves, it is more fulfilling and sustainable to share with others.

So stop and ask yourself, is it worth the time we spend
The singer suggests that people take a moment to reflect on the choices they make, and to consider whether they are truly making a positive impact with their actions.

Fussin', Fightin' an' arguing
The singer highlights the negative effects of conflict, and reminds us that arguments and disputes are ultimately fruitless and counterproductive.

Just take a look around you, there's somethin' you can do
The song concludes by reiterating the message that individuals have the power to make a difference in the world, and that it is up to us to embrace that responsibility.

Don't you think it's time we all chill out
As the final line of the song, this serves as a call to action to all listeners, inviting them to join the singer in their quest for a more peaceful and harmonious world.
