Better People Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Dowhay 

Cover art for Better People lyrics by Xavier Rudd

This song is very straightforward. Simple, yet powerful.

Danagirl, damn, down to a nutshell. Rudd writes about things that matter. Just like you said, pointless relationships, absolutely pathetic love songs, they all pale in comparison to songs like this.

Why can't we all be better people? Pick up that bit of rubbish you see on the beach? Let someone in front of you in the check-out line? Help that mother struggling with a pram, two bawling kids and ten shopping bags?

In the words of John Butler (who also played at Bluesfest '09!):

"Art changes People, People change the World"

An artform like Xavier's songwriting can change people. If we all do our bit, we CAN change the world!

Better People, a Better World!

One Love and Peace.
