lyrics
If our moms ruled the world,
Would there be nations and borders,
Would we all have food to eat?
Would there be Jesus, Mohammad,
And all of the prophets,
Would we all have love that runs deep?
If our moms ruled the world,
Would there be hours and minutes,
Seven days in a week?
Would there be millionaires,
And all the despair,
And everyone turning their cheek?
If our moms ruled the world,
Would we fight hard for those dollars,
With no love for thy neighbor or land?
Would it be win at all cost,
And integrity lost,
Or instead would we offer a hand?
I look around and I just wonder,
What this world would be like today,
If moms throughout time
Ruled mankind,
Would the world as we know it be this way?
If our moms ruled the world,
Would there be classes and races,
Would we all have a bed to sleep?
Would there be all these religions,
And fear on our faces,
Would we all have love that runs deep?
If our moms ruled the world,
Would there be banks and stock markets,
And innocence lost by the hour?
Would there be atrocities,
Or would we,
Have the will to empower?
I look around and I just wonder,
What this world would be like today,
If moms throughout time
Ruled mankind,
Would the world as we know it be this way?
If our moms ruled the world,
Would we know Hiroshima,
Would there be a need for a gun?
Would it be win at all cost and compassion lost,
Or instead would we see us as one?
I look around and I just wonder,
What this world would be like today,
If moms throughout time
Ruled mankind,
Would the world as we know it be this way?
And I look around,
And I wonder,
And I look around,
And I wonder.
