Have you heard that
Expressing awareness of a piece of information or news.
(chorus)
Repetition of the chorus.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IS THE LAW
Emphasizing that love is a guiding principle or moral code.
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT
Asserting the importance of recognizing that love is the governing principle.
LOVE IS THE LAW
Reiterating the idea that love is the fundamental law.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Repeating the chorus for emphasis.
People fighting in the name of freedom
Observing people engaging in conflicts in the pursuit of freedom.
Sometimes I wonder if we really need 'em
Expressing doubt about the necessity of such fights for freedom.
Have you heard the rumour going 'round
Asking if there is awareness of a circulating rumor about significant changes in the town.
There's gonna be big changes in this town
Suggesting anticipation of positive transformations.
And there'll be no more fighting, no more fuss
Envisioning a future without conflict or disturbance.
You'd better listen to us
Encouraging attentive listening to a message promoting peace.
Have you heard that
Reiterating the chorus.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Repeating the chorus for emphasis.
Fighting in the name of religion
Highlighting conflicts arising in the name of religion.
Another senseless contradiction
Labeling such conflicts as senseless contradictions.
So when you feel like getting rough 'n' tough
Advising against aggressive behavior, emphasizing no valid excuse for it.
Remember no excuse is good enough
Stressing the importance of giving more than taking to avoid negative consequences.
You better start giving more than you take
Advocating for a fair and balanced approach in interactions.
Or something just might break
Suggesting that failure to adopt a fair approach may lead to consequences.
Have you heard that
Reiterating the chorus.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Repeating the chorus for emphasis.
Fighting to prevent a war
Describing a fight to prevent war, questioning its continued necessity.
Why should we do it anymore
Challenging the rationale for engaging in such fights.
I know we can live here side by side
Expressing belief in the possibility of peaceful coexistence.
Not just a few in front and most behind
Advocating for equality and shared responsibility.
This world is big enough for everyone
Asserting that the world is spacious enough for everyone.
c'mon let's have some fun
Encouraging enjoyment and celebration of life.
Have you heard that
Reiterating the chorus.
(REPEAT CHORUS X 2)
Repeating the chorus twice for a final emphasis.
