Lyrics

[Verse 1]
High time we made a stand
And shook up the views of the common man
And the love train rides from coast to coast
DJ's the man we love the most
[Verse 2]
Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any hope of democracy?
As the headline says you're free to choose
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Sowing the seeds of love
Anything is possible
When you're sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds of love
Anything is possible
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
[Verse 3]
I spy tears in their eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention
Food goes to waste
So nice to eat, so nice to taste
[Verse 4]
Politician Grannie with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the Majority feels?
So without love and a promised land
We're fools to the rules of a government plan
Kick out the style, bring back the jam
[Chorus]
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds
The birds and the bees
My girlfriend and me
In love
[Verse 5]
Feel the pain, feel the pain
Talk about it, talk about it
If you're a worried man
If you're a worried man
Then shout about it
Open hearts – feel about it
Open minds – think about it
Everyone – read about it
Everyone – scream about it
Everyone
Everyone, yeah, yeah
Everyone
Everyone
Read about it, read about it
Read it in the books
In the crannies and the nooks
There are books to read
You gotta educate yourselves
[Bridge]
Sowing the seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love
We're sowing the seeds
Sowing the seeds
Okay!
Sowing the seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love
[Verse 6]
Mr. England sowing the seeds of love
Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes
Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes
[Verse 7]
High time we made a stand
And shook up the views of the common man
And the love train rides from coast to coast
Every minute of every hour – "I Love a Sunflower"
And I believe in lovepower
In LovePower
In LOVEPOWER!!
[Chorus]
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing! Sowing the seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds, sowing the seeds
The birds and the bees
My girlfriend and me
[Chorus]
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds of love
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
[Chorus]
Sowing the seeds of love
The seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)
Sowing the seeds
An end to need
And the politics
Oh yes, those goddamn politics
Of greed
