Greater Good Lyrics by Johnny Hates Jazz

Wide Awake

2020

Life isn't easy when you're on the run
Too busy looking after number one
But now we've found each other, can't you see?
We've got to think about you and me

'Cause when love is real
We've got to make it together
All I want to tell you is

Don't you let my words be misunderstood
We've got to work for the greater good
'Cause everyone's a part of a loving brotherhood
We've got to work for the greatеr good, yeah

Well, it's a crazy time and that's a fact
Thе world is full of egomaniacs
They want to be the biggest and the best
To pass the test, they will damn the rest

But if love is real
We've got to care for each other
All I want to tell you is

Don't you let my words be misunderstood
We've got to work for the greater good
'Cause everyone's a part of a loving sisterhood
We've got to work for the greater good, yeah

Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good

Don't you let my words be misunderstood
We've got to work for the greater good
'Cause everyone's a part of a loving brotherhood
We've got to work for the greater good, yeah

Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
Love is the greater good
