NOTE: This song was written for the competition at SongFight.org, where each week entrants write a new song using the song title the site gives out. The title for the week I entered was "Everybody Calm Down", so that is how the song got its name.
Everybody Calm Down
==============================
Drivers on the road
suddenly filled with rage
poking poking with a stick
a lion in a cage
Waiting for a table
standing in a line
all the stress and anger
an emotional land mine
Chorus
=================================
Everybody Calm Down
Everybody Calm Down
just open your eyes
to the beauty all around
Everybody Calm Down
Everybody Calm Down
sit back relax
take a good look around
peace will be found
peace will be found
=================================
I see it in their faces
and feel it in the air
a pot is boiling over
and no one seems to care
We shout about religion
We yell about the war
all this screaming at each other
man, that's not what life's for
not what life is for
not what life is for
Chorus
=================================
Everybody Calm Down
Everybody Calm Down
just open your eyes
to the beauty all around
Everybody Calm Down
Everybody Calm Down
sit back relax
take a good look around
and peace will be found
peace will be found
[fade to end]
Everybody Calm Down
Everybody Calm Down
take time and look
at the beauty all around
and peace will be found
peace will be found
=================================
