We Need Order - The Chi-Lites

The world today is in so many pieces

People searching for so many ways

Of releasing their disappointments and fears

So, come on with the pills and the tears

We need order, we need order

Yeah, hey, we need order

We need order, hey, hey

Oh, the flowers and the trees

Those that are left are so very beautiful

Oh, the birds and the bees

Have been forgotten, almost a used to be

Man is tempted to take

If not for himself then for his children

But, they can’t help themselves

But rely on a prayer and a little religion

We’re hung up on the knowledge of war

Something, that most of us have never seen

But, how sweet it would be to wake up in the morning

And find it was all a dream

We need order, we need order

Hey, hey, we need order

We need order, hey, hey

We need order, hey

Oh, the flowers and the trees

Those that are left are so very beautiful

Oh, the birds and the bees

Have been forgotten, almost a used to be
