Barclay James Harvest - Stand Up lyrics

We used to have a jungle out there

We used to be a people that cared

We neglect this world - how can this be? yeah

No longer can we look the other way

We call upon ourselves the judgement day

The planet's in a state of emergency

We know that a change is gonna come

It's gotta be one for all and all for one - yeah

Stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard

Stand up, stand up, if just a single word

We must appreciate what life's about

We gotta raise our voices and shout

We need to save our planet if we can

Stand up!

Are we really too blind to see

We can't see the forest for the trees

Tell me can't you hear nature's cry

How can we preserve our dignity

When we let our heritage bleed

We can't let another day go by

We know that a change is gonna come

- yes it is

It's one for all and all for one

Stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard

Stand up, stand up, if just a single word

We must appreciate what life's all about

We gotta raise our voices and shout

We need to save our planet if we can - yeah!

Stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard

Stand up, stand up, if just a single word

Help us conquer the storm

Lead us to a place safe and warm

Every man, every woman lend a hand -

Stand up!

Don't you think that it's time to stand up

Stand up, stand up, stand up?

Every boy, girl, woman and man

Save the world if you can

Everyone lend a hand

Stand up!

Stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard

Stand up, stand up, if just a single word

We must appreciate what life's all about

We gotta raise our voices and shout

We need to save our planet if we can

Stand up!

Stand up everybody

And let your voice be heard

Stand up all you people -

Help us spread the word [four times]

It's time to look inside your heart

It's time to make a brand new start

So won't you listen when we say

Act now before it's too late
