Lyrics
High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
D.J.'s the man we love the most
Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any hope of democracy?
As the headline says you're free to choose
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues
And anything is possible when you're Sowing the Seeds of Love
Anything is possible -- Sowing the Seeds of Love
I spy tears in their eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention
Food goes to waste!
So nice to eat, so nice to taste
Politician Grannie with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the Majority feels?
So without love and a promised land
We're fools to the rules of a Government plan
Kick out the Style! Bring back the Jam!
Anything...
Sowing the Seeds
The Birds and the Bees
My Girlfriend and Me in Love
Feel the Pain
Talk about it
If you're a worried man -- then shout about it
Open hearts -- feel about it
Open minds -- think about it
Everyone -- read about it
Everyone -- scream about it!
Everyone
Everyone -- read about it, read about it
Read it in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read
Chorus!
(Mr. England Sowing the Seeds of Love)
Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes
High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
Every minute of every hour -- "I Love a Sunflower"
And I believe in lovepower, LovePower, LOVEPOWER!!!
Sowing the Seeds
An end to need
And the Politics of Greed
With Love
