I would like you to think If someone's life was on the brink Would you stop and stare Or help if you dare Would you put yourself first Or give water to those who thirst Give up your food For the common good Would you risk your life To save someone from a knife Would you not eat for a month If a hungry village could eat lunch To **** a few is to save many Would you sacrifice one to give life to plenty Would you endure the pain If someone somewhere had something to gain

For The Common Good
I would like you to think If someone's life was on the brink Would you stop and stare Or help if you dare Would you put yourself first Or give water to those who thirst Give up your food For the common good Would you risk your life To save someone from a knife Would you not eat for a month If a hungry village could eat lunch To **** a few is to save many Would you sacrifice one to give life to plenty Would you endure the pain If someone somewhere had something to gain
