Music Lyrics

Yesterday I was on the edge
hoping everything was going to work itself out
A good honest man doing the work of God
Trying to make things better for Him
A lover of life in a school for fools
Trying to find another way to survive

Chorus:
New Music, Music, New Music
Sweet Music can lighten us
Can brighten the world, can save us

My friend said well, I think I found a way
To help make myself richer
I said dont you know , well, it wont be too long before
The bad ol devil will get you back
Back.. I said put back your heart and sing , sing while
you know youre still living
Sing, sing, sing , while you know theres still

Chorus

Take a look at the world
Think about how it will end
Thered be no wars in the world
If everybody joined the band
Think about the light in your eyes
Think about what you should know
Thered be no wars in the world
If everybody joined in the show Oh Oh

Think about the light in your eyes
Think about what you should know
Thered be no wars in the world
If everybody joined in the show
In the show

Chorus

Repeat First Verse

Cover art for Music lyrics by Cat Stevens

I'm surprised no one has commented on this particular song yet. It is one of my favorite songs of his. This was one of the first song I listened to when I started listening to my dad's old vinyls. The beat just makes me feel excited.

Obviously the song is about the effect of music on the world. It does make life more interesting. Just think of how pleasant living would be if it was a common practice for everyone to sing in the car on a daily basis :)
