Why let this world
Just weigh on your shoulders
Pick it up, push it off
Before you let yourself get colder

Just look into the eyes
The good eyes of a child
See that love
Rise like a river
And flow for a thousand miles

Give me some peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness

Come on, give it to me

Breathe in deep
Feel your heart beat
Just to know that life's worth living
Feel your feet
On the earth
You better love it
While it's still here spinning

I've got no time to worry
About troubles or misgivings
Need to let it flow
Let yourself go
'Cause if you're hating then you sure ain't living

Give me some peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness

Come on, give it to me

Look'it here
Lot of people talking
We need somebody to listen
Lot of people strugglin'
If you got think you better start givin'

Peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness
Come on now

C'mon give it to me
You've got to give it up

I can not eat this daily bread
With so many people starving
How come the presidents' build more bombs
When nations start disarming
With all that money spent on guns
Instead of food and education
Need to buy a little piece at the end of this day
Start the healing of the nation

Give some peace, love, happiness
Peace, love, happiness...

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
