"Dark Side Of The World" lyrics

It's okay in outer space
Down here, it's a rat race
And it goes on and on
Rockets that can fly to Mars
Man can almost touch the stars
Meanwhile, a war goes on

In a wilderness, somebody dies
The world looks on, paralyzed
Disaster strikes again
Help arrives upon the scene
Politics are everywhere
The competition's keen

If only we could take off for the moon
If only we could live our lives in tune
If only we could take off for a day
And watch the dark side of the world just fade away

It's okay in outer space
Down here, the rat race still carries on
Rockets that can fly to Mars
Man can almost touch the stars
Meanwhile, a war goes on

In a wilderness, somebody dies
The world looks on, paralyzed
Disaster strikes again
Help arrives upon the scene
Politics are everywhere
The competition's keen

If only we could take off for the moon
If only we could live our lives in tune
If only we could take off for a day
And watch the dark side of the world just fade away

It's okay in outer space (If only we could take off for the moon)
Down here, it's a rat race (Down here it's a rat race)
And it goes on and on
Rockets that can fly to Mars (If only we could live our lives in tune)
Man can almost touch the stars
Meanwhile, a war goes on

In a wilderness, somebody dies
If only we could take off for the moon)
The world looks on, just paralyzed (Down here it's a rat race)
Disaster strikes again
Help arrives upon the scene (If only we could live our lives in tune)
Politics are everywhere
The competition's keen

It's okay in outer space (If only we could take off for the moon)
Down here, it's a rat race (Down here it's a rat race)
And it goes on and on
Rockets that can fly to Mars (If only we could live our lives in tune)
