WHAT DO YOU NEED?

Lyrics © & ℗ 2017 by Frank Denhard, Aachen. All rights reserved. GEMA

 

Do you need a flat? Do you need a bed?

Do you need something to eat? I think that´s something you really need, indeed.

Do you need to think? Do you need to watch?

Don´t you think you need to talk ´bout things concerning people everywhere?

 

Just tell me what you really need, above your head, beneath your feet.

Don´t you think everyone needs to be o.k.? All over the world? Everyday?

 

Do you need much money? D´you need a big car?

Do you need a big house? Do you really need to be a super star?

Do you need to be so fast? Do you need to be so strong?

Do you need to be so loud? Can´t you dare sometimes just simply to be wrong?

 

Just tell me what you really need? Is it love or hate or greed?

Don´t you know, sometimes less is more, you don´t always need to settle the score.

 

Come on, abandon all restraint and take joy in little things.

If you disclaim you won´t faint, just wait and see what it brings.

You know, sometimes a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

Open your eyes, your heart, your mind and give your life a push.

 

Do you need fuel? Do you need oil?

Do you need healthy food? Well, it won´t grow on polluted soil.

Do you think you need clear water? Do you think you need fresh air?

Do you think sometimes maybe it´s worth for all mankind to take care?

 

Just tell me what you really need, beside your head, beside your feet. Don´t you think

This world belongs to everyone? No matter if black or white, if weak or strong?

Just tell me what you really need, above your head, beneath your feet.

Don´t you think everyone needs to be fine? Wherever he lives? At any time?
