Let’s finish the class in Michael Jackson’s song ---Heal the world
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we’ve shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying earth the weeping shores
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaah
