Does Anybody Out There Even Care Lyrics
The dream is lost
Don’t let it slip away
Or bloody days won’t be far away
'Cause when there’s no more sun
There’s no where you can run
Does anybody know how many lives we’ve lost
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
Wake up world before it’s too late
It’s time for love to conquer hate
And when the battle’s won
We all can live as one
Does anybody know how many lives we’ve lost
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
Hey
Riots in the streets,
Men dressed in white sheets
Is that what we want
Oh a little boy hanging from a tree
And a burning cross
If we can learn that we’re one we can overcome
Before this takes us all
We’d better catch ourselves before we fall
Does anybody know how many lives we’ve lost
Yeah hey hey hey
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
Does anybody out there even care
Don’t let it slip away
Or bloody days won’t be far away
'Cause when there’s no more sun
There’s no where you can run
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
It’s time for love to conquer hate
And when the battle’s won
We all can live as one
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
Riots in the streets,
Men dressed in white sheets
Is that what we want
Oh a little boy hanging from a tree
And a burning cross
If we can learn that we’re one we can overcome
Before this takes us all
We’d better catch ourselves before we fall
Yeah hey hey hey
Can anybody ever pay the cost
What will it take for us to join in peace my friends
Does anybody out there even care
Does anybody out there even care

I've never heard this song before, but this is easy to understand and rather trite. The song beckons us to stop hating and start loving, dammit! Make love not war!
Yup, this song is definately all about the love! One of those, "wake up and smell the bloodshed!" kinda songs (only put a little more delicately, lol). It's kinda slow, but that works for it. I like it, it's good.
One of Lenny's best secular songs where his burning heart is on fire about racial hate. His performance of it on "Let Love Rule" tears me up.
